To pull it off, Adler has been reaching out to his 73,000+ Twitter followers and 2,400+ Facebook friends to "Share the Love" and the news that his new Max's ABC T shirt will be given to everyone who donates $27 or more BY MIDNIGHT (PST)TODAY, Feb. 14, only. In addition, all those who donate $7 or more TODAY will be entered into his "Lunch with Max" drawing.* Max's ABC T shirt with the slogan, "Be Brave Enough to Be Kind" (abbreviated as "bb2bk") on the back, which will go on sale later this month at www.cityhearts.org and at the site of partner Shout b cause at www.nobullytxt.com.

Many of Adler's fans from across the U.S., and as far away as Canada, the UK, Norway, Italy and Belgium have been giving repeat donations to support his cause, and others are "matching" their friends' or lovers' contributions as Valentine's Day gifts.
MAX'S QUOTE: "I am asking everyone to 'Share the Love' on Valentine's Day by visiting www.cityhearts.org and giving whatever you can for the kids who need it most," Adler said. "Through City Hearts' amazing and inspiring Arts programs, the most underprivileged and at-risk children will learn how to 'Be Brave Enough to Be Kind' and the thought of bullying others will not even enter their headspace. We really need your support right now to help end bullying, and I hope to be sitting across the table from you at our lunch in L.A."
