LANSING, Mich. — As the month of October, and National Bullying Prevention Month, come to a close, BIGGBY® COFFEE is excited to wrap up their partnership with STOMP Out Bullying™ [stompoutbullying.org] and thank all of their customers that allowed BIGGBY® COFFEE to collect over $25,000 in donations for the national anti-bullying organization.
As community members banned together October 7–20 to round up their change at BIGGBY® COFFEE registers across the nation, BIGGBY® COFFEE and STOMP Out Bullying are proud to thank each and every community member that took the time to donate and create a voice for those that may be fearful of using their own voice.
STOMP Out Bullying is the leading nonprofit organization dedicated to changing the culture for all students by reducing and preventing bullying and cyberbullying; educating against homophobia, LGBTQ discrimination, and racism; providing practical solutions on how to respond to bullying; and helping those at risk of suicide through their HelpChat Line.

In a world where bullying and cyberbullying are becoming more and more prevalent, BIGGBY® COFFEE is honored to work with an organization like STOMP Out Bullying, who hold the same belief as BIGGBY® COFFEE that everyone should feel valued, loved, important, and heard.
BIGGBY® COFFEE is excited to see so many funds going to the organization and looks forward to continuing to support STOMP Out Bullying.
