ABOUT THE NO BULL CHALLENGE

The Great American NO BULL Challenge is a leadership and social action organization that uses the power of social media and the magic of filmmaking to inspire students to create short films or PSAs that inspire change on the important issues affecting today’s youth.

 

NO BULL empowers students to stand up and say NO BULL to those who spread hatred about subjects like:  Bullying, Violence, Drug/Alcohol Abuse, Inequality, Hatred, Suicide, Internet Addiction, LGBT and Obesity.
