We magnify the impact of SEL at DHIFI by urging learners to be proud of the things that make them unique, sustained by educational offerings that emphasize increasing SEL’s reach, encouraging students to take pride in their uniqueness, which is reinforced by endeavors that include:

  • Exchanging narratives: Students boost their self-confidence and break down social obstacles that commonly produce bullying, by recounting the stories of their own lives.
  • Accentuating individuality: We enlighten students that their various attributes are advantages rather than inadequacies.

As part of our mission, we endorse for self-acceptance and the acceptance of others, nurture respect for people from various backgrounds, and ensure everybody feels they belong, despite their differences.

Bullying Awareness Training For Students

DHIFI, created by Meg Zucker, isn’t just a nonprofit; it’s the embodiment of a personal journey toward self-acceptance. With the individual insight of living with a unique genetic condition impacting her and her husband’s limbs, and with two of their three children that have inherited the condition, Meg has shaped DHIFI into a platform that celebrates visible differences. DHIFI started as an idea’s seed and has since blossomed into a vibrant community, where families and educational institutions are given the encouragement they need to celebrate the things that make them different, transforming potential barriers into opportunities for empowerment. To further our mission, speaking engagements are also given by DHIFI founder Meg Zucker. Get in touch with us today to discover more.

Testimonials

During our 2019 annual President’s Council of Cornell Women (PCCW) Symposium, Meg gave an impressionable presentation titled “What You Think of Me is None of My Business: Embracing Your Superpower” which embodied our theme of PCCW Celebrates One Cornell: Diversity and Inclusion.” Not only was Meg’s presentation insightful, thoughtful and impactful, but she captivated the audience. Sharing stories about those who go through life with visible and invisible differences made us aware that we all face difficulties and challenges in many ways, but together, through education and awareness, we can be compassionate, loving and caring to everyone, no matter the trials and tribulations ahead.

When the U.S. Embassy in Israel hosted Meg Zucker as a Distinguished American Speaker in 2015, the audiences she spoke and met with were deeply inspired by her personal story, her effective advocacy, and the early success of Don’t Hide It, Flaunt It.  Her appearance made a huge impact with advocates for inclusion and acceptance which still resonates today with those who met her.

Daniel Shapiro

former U.S. Ambassador to Israel

Meg is an energetic and engaging speaker who inspires all who meet her with her life story of growing up with a blatant physical difference and parenting kids who share her difference.   Her message of “the things that make me different make me, me” is heartfelt and impactful and resonates with audiences of all ages and backgrounds.  Meg’s mission of building acceptance, tolerance, and empathy is more important now than ever before.  Everyone who has the pleasure of hearing Meg’s story and her vision will be better for it.
