Courage to Care Photography Competition

We are seeking creative & talented Upstanders!

 

We invite your students to use their creative and technical skills to craft an image through photography to illustrate what it is to be an Upstander! 

 

Courage to Care offers dynamic educational programs about the importance of standing up to racism and discrimination, empowering students to confront prejudice and bullying.

 

An Upstander is a witness who chooses to take action to create positive change. We believe that ordinary people have the power to make a positive difference to the lives of others. Taking inspiration from real-life extraordinary acts of courage, our Upstander Programs inspire people to make a real difference in their community by standing up and taking action, creating real change.
