LOVE IS LOUDER

Monday, November 15th, 2010

LOVE IS LOUDER is an awesome campaign that was started by actress Brittany Snow, and MTV. The campaign began in response to the numerous teen suicides this past September, and seeks to raise awareness about all the avenues for help there are for teens that need it. LOVE IS LOUDER is all about turning up the volume of other inspiring online campaigns, and inviting those that have felt mistreated, misunderstood, and singled out into the conversation. Most importantly it amplifies a critical message: love and support  are more powerful than the external and internal messages that often cause feelings of hopelessness and helplessness.

As with most things in life there is strength in numbers, and the louder we are in spreading the thinkGood. message of  LOVE IS LOUDER, the stronger the movement. Anyone can lend their voice to the Love is Louder movement by joining in the conversation on Facebook and Twitter, or by uploading a brief video (30 seconds or less) at http://your.mtv.com – telling the world what they believe love is louder than. Make sure to tag your video with loveislouder.

Notable celebreties such as Drake, Pink and Vinny from Jersey  Shore have all created Love is Louder videos. Watch below:
