A Very Good Neighbor … In Stereo

We each can use a good neighbor, right? Someone nearby who cares about us. Someone who’s there when we really need them. For nearly 90 years now, State Farm has proven they’re just what their slogan claims: a very good neighbor. Hey, there’s a reason our Humanity Project office is protected by a State Farm policy! State Farm’s neighborliness extends to good causes around the country too, including support for the Humanity Project’s anti-bullying programs for elementary students. So we’re very pleased to announce that State Farm has just signed on as an official sponsor of the Humanity Project podcasts for 2010. You can hear these stereo webcasts through iTunes, among other major podcast providers – or by just going to our website at www.thehumanityproject.com and clicking on “Podcasts.” We offer interviews, original music and stories and lots more. And thanks to our good neighbor, State Farm, we’ll be able to keep sharing these special Internet broadcasts with you every month. Thanks so much, State Farm!

Thank You, State Farm!

Once again, our Good Neighbors have come through for us. State Farm Insurance has just signed on as a sponsor of The Humanity Project’s innovative anti-bullying program for elementary school students. This month, more than 1,400 kids will learn why bullying hurts everyone in their school – and how they can stop it in appropriate ways. Many thousands more will hear that same lesson in the coming weeks. Our program was approved by psychologists, educators and prevention specialists for use here in Broward County, Florida – the nation’s sixth largest school district. But we can’t get it to the kids who need it without money. So three State Farm agency field executives stepped up to help, just as they did for our Thousand Youth March for Humanity last November. The Humanity Project gives a big thanks again to Eugene Dixon, Craig Holloway and John Gentry for bringing State Farm to this cause. They understand how important it is to stop the school bullying that damages, sometimes destroys, young lives. And like the good neighbors they are, Mr. Dixon, Mr. Holloway and Mr. Gentry are doing something about it. We offer them our heartfelt thanks.
