Statistics show that 99% of all teens have access to the internet
and 94% of students admitted to being cyber bullied and did not tell
an adult. The importance of protecting the children in your
community is a major undertaking and Optimists Clubs can play a
vital role.
Adult Internet Safety Education:
This program is offered to adult groups of any size in order to
educate them about the dangers on the internet that young people can
unknowingly fall into. There is information and suggestions on how
to keep children safe while navigating the online world and what
adults can do to protect young people using the internet.
Faux Paw, the Techno Cat:
The Faux Paw program is designed for children in first through
fourth grades and teaches about the dangers of Internet Safety
through an animated story. This program is also designed to be
presented by Optimist Clubs to a group of any size.
If you would like more information about
either one of these programs, please contact Frank Praznik,
