Unite Against Bullying with Sherri Saum

Sherri Saum is the star of ABC Family’s hit show, “The Fosters.” Saum’s career began with a break through scene in Aaron Spelling’s daytime series “Sunset Beach,” airing on NBC. As a standout on the show, she earned an Emmy nomination for Best Younger Actress. From there, Saum went on to star in dozens of series such as Showtime's “Beggars and Choosers,” FX's critically acclaimed “Rescue Me,” and “Law and Order - Criminal Intent,” ABC's “Body of Proof” and “Unforgettable,” CW's “Gossip Girl,” and most notably on HBO's Golden Globe winning “In Treatment.” Saum’s indie film “Anne B. Real” was recognized with the John Cassavetes Award at the Sundance Film Festival.

Saum’s passion for philanthropy has her traveling the globe. She is a tireless supporter of our U.S. troops overseas, and has traveled on a dozen USO tours from Japan to Saudi Arabia. Saum has traveled to Africa with the Gabriel Project, bringing children with heart defects to the U.S. for life-saving heart surgeries. She is a constant supporter of Kusewera, an organization that empowers and educates children in orphanages in Malawi, Africa and The Philippines through active and creative play. Locally, she supports several non-profit organizations that encourage young women and mentoring.

Sherri, who hails from Dayton, Ohio, believes in living with your whole heart, finding your passions, and living them out every day. She strives to live a healthy, holistic driven life in Los Angeles with her husband, actor Kamar de los Reyes, and their lab mix, Leo. The star gave birth to twins, John Rubén and Michael Luis, in May 2014.

About the Be Good to Each Other campaign
At CustomInk, we believe in the Golden Rule and treating others with kindness and respect.  We’ve created the Be Good to Each Other campaign to help increase awareness and ultimately prevent bullying by uniting groups with custom t-shirts.

This is the fourth year of the CustomInk Be Good to Each Other campaign.  Over the years, with the help of our celebrity partners, the media and you, CustomInk has raised nearly $60,000 for bullying prevention efforts. The power of t-shirts goes beyond the funds raised - thousands of people continue to wear the shirts they've purchased and support bullying prevention.
