Following these incidents, the two Gracies offered both children free training time at Gracie University and also set up a crowdfunder to pay for their travel expenses.
At the time of writing the fund had raised $22,645 for the Syrian refugees. Any additional funds not needed to pay for flights, food and accommodation will be paid directly to the family and, according to the brothers, a family trip to Disneyland if there is enough left over.
Another UK-based crowdfund campaign has raised more than £150,000.
Ryron Gracie said: "We've reached out to other bullying victims in the past and the training we provided completely changed their lives.
"Everyone is offering support but no one is offering the solution.
"With your help we're going to change his life forever."
Rener Gracie said: "With your help we want to fly him to California, to give him the tools that he needs, so that if this happens again he's ready.
"He needs the confidence to stand up for himself and the technique to stay safe if this ever happens again and, at Gracie University, this is what we do."
The brothers have offered similar training to other children, which you can see below.
