Former rugby star Ben Cohen is taking his gay rights advocacy a step further with the creation of an antibullying organization called the StandUp Foundation and he's already secured partnerships with Campus Pride, the Human Rights Campaign, the Matthew Shepard Foundation, and the Trevor Project.
The StandUp Foundation will work to prevent all bullying, regardless of race, gender, socioeconomic status, or sexual orientation. The Atlanta-based organization will work with the four previously mentioned organizations to realize the mission of StandUp.
Regarding the collaboration with Campus Pride, Cohen said in a statement, "We are proud to partner with Campus Pride. They have a long, successful track record of working with educators and students to make campuses more inclusive for and accepting of LGBT people. Raising awareness of and funds for their tireless, on-the-ground work is very important to all of us here at the Ben Cohen StandUp Foundation."
The website for the StandUp Foundation will go live August 3 -- watch Cohen talk about the launch in the video below.
