Happy Holidays!

We’ve been very busy since our highly successful Thousand Youth March for Humanity. That’s why there’s been no new blog since then. We’re creating a new monthly email newsletter that we hope to send out to members and supporters within the next few days. We’re meeting with potential new sponsors for exciting upcoming projects. And most of all, we’re working on those projects. One of these is our in-school anti-bullying program, which will go into South Florida elementary schools starting in early 2009. The other … well, shhhh! It’s a secret for now. We’ll make an announcement soon about one of the boldest ideas yet for The Humanity Project. For now, please accept our thanks for your support during 2008 – and our fondest hopes that each of you enjoys a great holiday season and healthy, productive 2009! Happy Holidays from everyone at The Humanity Project!

Children’s March A Huge Success!

The Thousand Youth March for Humanity brought together more than 1,300 students by official estimates, from kindergarten through college, along with some 500 or more adults. We all united in downtown Fort Lauderdale on Sunday, November 16 – a picture perfect day! Our message was simple: “We want no bullying around!” We delivered that message loud and clear, with original songs and poetry slams and dance and great speeches of hope. To our knowledge, this event was a first anywhere in the United States.

It’s just one example of what The Humanity Project is all about: Finding practical ways to help fulfill human potential, such as stopping bullying. Listen for our next podcast, at the end of this month, which will help explain more fully what we’re really trying to accomplish. This group is not New Age, not religious. Our efforts are practical and our ideas are rooted in realities we all would recognize in our individual lives. Stay tuned for that program. But for now, thanks to everyone who helped make The Humanity Project’s Thousand Youth March for Humanity such a powerful anti-bullying message.
