We are honored to announce Katie Cassidy as the latest addition to our team of ambassadors, which includes Hollywood actress Garcelle Beauvais, disabled rights advocate Jillian Mercado, and TikTok star Holly H.
Katie will help us raise awareness of cyberbullying and digital abuse, which is affecting so many people around the world, as well as amplifying our messages of hope and support to empower people.
I am working with Cybersmile because we live in an interactive online world. Whether it be for work or play, being connected has become our environment. We all want to feel safe in our environment. It's important we support those that are bullied online to help us work towards building our children a happier, healthier online environment.
Katie Cassidy, Cybersmile Ambassador
Katie is best known for her role as the Black Canary, AKA Laurel Lance, in the CW series "Arrow," based on the DC Comic series "Green Arrow," starring alongside Stephen Amell. She has recently supported our Stop Cyberbullying Day campaign by appearing in our PSA alongside other ambassadors and supporters. Previously, she has been nominated for multiple Teen Choice Awards and has appeared in video games, including the PS4 title Hidden Agenda.
We are extremely excited and proud to welcome Katie as an official Cybersmile ambassador. As a rising star in Hollywood, she will be able to positively influence a huge number of potentially vulnerable internet users of all ages and amplify our important messages of hope, unity, and positivity.
Scott Freeman, CEO, The Cybersmile Foundation
Katie will soon appear in "Grace," a romantic comedy drama film written and directed by Devin Adair, starring Tate Donovan, Matthew Lillard, Debby Ryan, and Mircea Monroe.
