Lady Gaga's mother, Cynthia Germanotta, President and Co-Founder of Born This Way Foundation, reveals why it's cool to be kind
'Kindness is not a nice-to-have, it's a must-have' November 12, 2021 - 06:59 GMT Ainhoa Barcelona Lady Gaga and her mother Cynthia Germanotta are on a mission to make kindness cool. It's one of the core values of their joint organisation, Born This Way Foundation, which they co-founded, in part, as a result of Lady Gaga's experience with bullying at a young age.
"My oldest daughter Stefani began struggling with mental health challenges, including depression and anxiety, at a young age. These issues – that she still admits are part of her journey – were largely a result of the unkindness and bullying she faced from her peers because of her uniqueness. "Earlier this year, we conducted a survey of over 2,000 young people, ages 13 to 24, that revealed the undeniable ways kindness contributes to many aspects of mental wellness, from helping young people feel safe, confident, and less alone to impacting their desire to stay alive.
"Each story calls on readers to perform acts of kindness in their own communities and provides helpful resources for them to do so. Each day, I'm inspired by the young people who are bravely sharing their mental health journeys, starting nonprofits, supporting their peers, cultivating kind communities, and more.
