Maurine Molak

Maurine Molak co-founded David’s Legacy Foundation in 2016 after her 16-year-old son, David, died by suicide after experiencing months of relentless and threatening cyberbullying. Maurine worked with Texas legislators to pass “David’s Law,” which provided tools to address cyberbullying through the education, civil, and criminal codes. In 2024, she co-founded Parents for Safe Online Spaces (ParentsSOS), an educational initiative for survivor parents who have lost children to online harms.
