2025 Marks 10 Years of Impact at Be Strong! Be Strong is a leading national charity on mission to save and improve the lives of our youth using a peer-to-peer approach. From small towns to big cities, thousands of student volunteers are implementing Be Strong’s proven impact model in half the countres across the US.
Through educational events, on-campus student-led initiatives, evidence-based curriculum, and digital intervention tools such as emergency checklists and the Be Strong App, we are strengthening mental, emotional, and relational health, building resilience, helping the most vulnerable with basic needs, and preventing bullying – at no cost to students and families.
“People don’t always look like what they are going through. My community knows me as a class president, not as someone facing challenges. I needed help – and Be Strong was the first place that provided me the space and resources I needed.” – Be Strong Student Representative.
