Teen Spreads Hope For Bullied Kids Around The World
Kendallville, IN – February 19, 2013 Spencer Kane, a 16-year-old singer and actor from Kendallville, IN, whose star is quickly rising, has become the newest spokesperson for PACER’s National Bullying Prevention Center. After being bullied himself as a young teen, Spencer has released a new EP titled “One of The Kind” which features a track of the same title. The song has quickly made an impact with kids in the U.S. and abroad because it suggests a positive way to prevent bullying – by being KIND. The official music video had nearly 100,000 views in the first 10 days on Spencer’s official Youtube channel. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2YtA4QIhPr0) The song has generated hundreds of emails and messages of support and was a key reason for PACER to formalize the relationship with Spencer as spokesperson. “Our goal is to change the culture so that bullying is no longer considered acceptable in our society,” said Julie Hertzog, director of PACER’s National Bullying Prevention Center. “One very effective way to reach kids is through the influence of young, popular performers like Spencer whose opinions really matter to teens. He is a great role model and we’re thrilled to have him as a spokesperson.” Spencer talks with fans all over the world about the importance of KINDNESS toward those around you and how something as simple as a brief conversation with someone can make a huge impact. He takes the message of Being One of The Kind to each live performance and is partnering with schools to share the message with students during school appearances. “I know how many times it really hurt when people I thought were my friends would make fun of me, spread rumors, or even threaten to harm me,” said Spencer. “I wrote this song because I know how important it is to have someone to talk to when you’re being bullied or going through a tough time.” ABOUT PACER Every year 13 million kids in America are bullied.
