OVER

3.2 million Students

report being victims of bullying
each year.

AT FISHBEIN FOUNDATION, WE ARE DOING OUR PART TO HELP THE SPREAD OF POSITIVITY, KINDNESS AND ACCEPTANCE TO ALL PEOPLE.

What is the

EmBraces initiative?

In our efforts to promote good will among students, we launched the EmBraces anti-bullying initiative. The intent behind our initiative is to build a network of young ambassadors who spread benevolence and work to educate their peers on the importance of embracing others.

Throughout the school year, young applicants submit their stories of overcoming a bullying-related struggle and making a positive impact for themselves and others.

The winning applicants are chosen, based on these stories, to receive full orthodontic treatment at Fishbein Orthodontics – free of cost.

The courageous winners will join our team of young do-gooders in the community who help their peers learn more about the realities of bullying and the acts we can take against bullying.

HOW TO Apply

IN 2018, 6 STUDENTS BEGAN FREE TREATMENT, AND ONE WINNER WAS CHOSEN BY OUR PATIENTS TO RECEIVE A 2,500 COLLEGE SCHOLARSHIP!
We greatly appreciate all of the brave, anti-bullying ambassadors who reach out to share their stories. Do you have a story you would like to tell?

Submissions are now closed. Please check our social media for the next entry period.
