When Morgan Guess experienced bullying as a student, she and her mother, Susan, decided to do something about it: The pair launched the Guess Anti-Bullying Foundation nearly four years ago. To date, they have raised $50,000 to bring a variety of bullying awareness programs to schools throughout the region.

Host Renee Shaw talks with Susan and Morgan Guess of Paducah about their anti-bullying initiatives and Susan’s recent appointment to the Kentucky Youth Bullying Prevention Task Force on Connections with Renee Shaw airing Friday, June 5 at 5/4 pm on KET2 and Sunday, June 7 at 1:30/12:30 pm on KET.

Then, Renee sits down with Miss Kentucky 2014 Ramsey Carpenter, who talks about her motivation to increase awareness of multiple sclerosis in the wake of her diagnosis with the disease. Shaw’s interview with Carpenter will air on Connections with Renee Shaw Friday, June 12 at 5/4 pm on KET2 and Sunday, June 14 at 1:30/12:30 pm on KET.
