Hi. My name is Erick Villari.

I’ve learned that a lot of kids - and even adults - have been bullied at some point in their lives. Everyone has the power and duty to help each other and to stand up for what is right. Inspired by the wisdom, empathy, and strength of my grandfather, I’ve decided to take the power of change into my own hands. As a legendary martial artist, my grandfather motivated thousands of people throughout his lifetime to see the potential and confidence that lies within each of us. _EVokingChange was born not only as a legacy to my late grandfather, but also, as a deeply personal project to create inclusive environments for all.
