Mission Statement

Hey U.G.L.Y. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization whose mission is to help teens counter challenges such as bullying, eating disorders, violence, substance abuse and suicide. (U.G.L.Y. is an acronym meaning unique gifted lovable you.)

Description

We are dedicated to providing programs that will help teens achieve self-acceptance while discovering their unique gifts and inner beauty through four initiatives:

The eM-POWER self-esteem and diversity-building curriculum

In-school presentations to students, teachers and parents

Our website, www.heyugly.org, which lists quotes from celebrities about self-esteem and features self-esteem and diversity-building articles, contests and exercises.

Hey U.G.L.Y.'s CHOOSE TO CHANGE radio show on WRHC 106.7 FM features songs that build self-esteem, encourage brotherly love, and world peace to make the world a better place.

Recently a 14 year old wrote to Hey U.G.L.Y. about being teased by schoolmates because she was overweight. When she saw the Hey U.G.L.Y. website she said it encouraged her to be "more cool" with herself.
