Girl Power: Valerie Weisler

After seeing a boy bullied at school Valerie Weisler went up to him and told him he mattered.  She then went home, learnt to make a website and created the non-profit Validation Project.  This organisation teams up troubled teens with mentors who can help them hone a skill such as photography or cooking.  She has also written a Kindness Curriculum which is used in hundreds of schools. And did I mention she's just 17 years old?  You can find out more about Valerie and the Validation Project here.
