The second goal of Connecticut's Kid Governor® Elena’s Campaign for Kindness is for “Buddy Benches” to be installed on 10 Connecticut school or community playgrounds. “Buddy Benches,” a movement started by Christian Bucks of Pennsylvania and his principal, eliminate loneliness and foster friendship by providing a safe space for students to sit when they need a “buddy” to play with. Congratulations to the following groups who have committed to bringing Buddy Benches to their schools!
Will you also bring a Buddy Bench to your community? If you do, please contact CKG Elena at CKGElena@kidgovernor.org to let her know! |
