B- Born This Way Foundation

The Born This Way Foundation was funded by Gaga and her mother Cynthia in late 2011. The Born This way Foundation officially started on February 29th 2012. The Idea of the Born This Way Foundation is to aim towards a more accepting society , where differences are embraced and individuality is celebrated. There are three pillars to the Foundation: Safety, Skills, and opportunities. The Born This Way Foundation will aim to create a braver, Kinder world. The Born This Way foundation is one big movement encouraging youth empowerment. 


"Bullies are for losers," a quote said by Gaga when she preformed "Hair" at the IHeartRadio Concert in tribute to Jeremy, a monster who taken his life a few days before. The Born This Way Foundation wants to create a safe environment for youth to explore themselves and not to be scared because of their sexuality or the way they dress. The Born This Way Foundation provides online support for all of those who don't feel like they're good enough. 


The BTWF also wants to give the skills, tools, and resources you will need. Now is the time we need to make a change, The Born This Way Foundation shows how important it is for a change, where everyone is accepted for who they are. “I used to walk down the street like I was a fucking star… I want people to walk around delusional about how great they can be - and then to fight so hard for it every day that the lie becomes the truth.”  


The Born This Way Foundation also gives the opportunity to reach out to your community and give a helping hand. The BTWF  provides ways to implement solutions and impact local community's. People will be able to lead the charge impacting your surroundings. 


There are also many ways you can help with this movement. Share your story of bravery, Let all of your friends and family know what the Born This Way Foundation is doing, and donate money and never be afraid to be yourself.
