A Houston-area nonprofit, Block the Bully, is hosting an event to combat childhood bullying. The organization, founded by Houston native Steven Lockhardt, is launching the inaugural World Volleyball Day.

The event is scheduled for July 7 and aims to bring people together to help stop childhood bullying. Lockhardt has a personal connection to the cause, having faced bullying throughout his childhood.
