FunkyFatBoy Foundation

FunkyFatBoy is a nonprofit organization that helps those in need of physical and mental health due to trauma or lack of confidence. During my teenage years, I helplessly witnessed friends endure nonstop bullying for countless reasons. They faced challenges daily and unfortunately, there was no support system available to help and guide them towards positivity. One of my closest friends who was a victim of bullying due to his physical appearance eventually took his own life. In response to this shocking tragedy, FunkyFatBoy was established in 2012 in London, UK to reach out to marginalized young people and re-inspire them with the belief that physical and mental well being CAN be achievable.  

​

The foundation has primarily been open to those who have had a financial constraint for not being able to get professional assistance with the challenges that they are facing. In the past eight years, I've had the opportunity to connect with positive volunteers and reach out to 1000s of individuals of all ages who have been victims of social and cyber bullying. Some have dealt with bullying due to their physical appearances while some have had an unfortunate physical or mental disability. I've helped these individuals find their confidence and learn how to look past negativity through physical, mental, emotional and spiritual practices. 

​

I'm determined to continue in this path and for FunkyFatBoy to be a safe and supportive space for anyone and everyone who needs it. All you have to do is reach out.
