Matthew Shepard Foundation

We are going to try something new. MSF InfoBus sessions will be held each Monday at 1:00 pm PT. Check back here for any dates when sessions will not occur.

Hello all,

Welcome to the Matthew Shepard Foundation group. Below you will find some info on who we are and what we are all about.

Hello everyone. Just a few comments about the guestbook. I want to thank everyone for their comments and honesty.

It is important to remember that this group is about erasing hate, in all its forms. Yes, Matthew was murdered because he was gay, but he could just as easily been hurt because of his gender, religion, size or any of the other things that make us different.

Regardless of our personal beliefs, it is never okay to hurt someone because of who they are.

The Matthew Shepard Foundation was founded by Dennis and Judy Shepard in memory of their 21-year old son, Matthew, who was murdered in an anti-gay hate crime in Wyoming in October 1998.

Created to honor Matthew in a manner that was appropriate to his dreams, beliefs and aspirations, the Foundation seeks to "Replace Hate with Understanding, Compassion & Acceptance" through its varied educational, outreach and advocacy programs and by continuing to tell Matthew's story.

    my school always tell us bout cyberbullying. 2 me, its like.. "if u wanna be a bully, then why hack here?like.. go somewhere else instead of the school. the school doesnt want bullies. so 2 me.. "get urself out of the school. the school dun want bullies".and 1 more thing. ppl who are bullied dun be weak. tell the teacher or something. if bad people r not scolded, their bad behavior will be a habit to them. so ppl who r bullied just dun be a crybaby or someone weak. we gotta be strong.

    At my school, we have a few people come in and talk about cyberbullying & bullying to the whole entire middle school, it's an assembly and eveyone has to go. They showed us websites on young teens that killed themselves bc people at school were making fun of them so they got tired of it & commited bobba. It's so sad, people need to keep their opinions to themselves. & they only say mean things aboutothers bc they are insecure with themselves.

    I was at the mall and i saw a group of preps [preps are girls who think there all that when there not.] judging some boy that wore a red swaeter with flip-flops. They were calling him gay boy and bobba.

    Mathew suffered just like a boy named Bobby. Instead of being killed he killed himself. He jumped off a bridge and a truck was coming by and killed him instantly when Bobby jumped. thats right kimy i saw the movie it was sad

    Ok, so. If you need coins, & can't go buy some, make an account on metaRL. Basically, on metaRL, you just earn points, & when you get enough, you transfer them to Habbo. There's no password typing involved ANYWHERE, so there's no possible way it's a scam; so don't even. Just make an account, earn points, transfer them. But use this link:

    & ACTIVATE YOUR ACCOUNT from your e-mail!! Thnx! ;D
