The award was created in 2014 by one of Bordas & Bordas’ founders Jim Bordas and honors each Anti-Bullying Ambassador with a $500 cash prize. The criteria for students nominated includes treating everyone equally, respecting differences in others, and standing up for those who are targeted by others or are discriminated against.
“There are a lot of awards out there that recognize the best student or the best athlete. Those are wonderful awards. However, we feel that it is also important to recognize and reward those who treat others with kindness, respect and compassion. We wish the Anti-Bullying Ambassadors and the class of 2022 the best of luck in their future endeavors,” said Bordas.
