Humanity Project is 20 years old

Catch The Big Bash

We celebrated 20 years of humanity on November 1, 2025. It was a worldwide birthday bash to remember, with folks from as far away as Africa taking part. Now we’ve posted the video of our full 2-hour party on our Humanity Project YouTube Channel. We think you’ll find it fun, fast-paced and inspiring. As we write this blog, it’s exactly 20 years since our founding by Bob Knotts, our president: November 3, 2005 was the big day. Since then, the Humanity Project has helped tens of thousands of kids and adults through our original free programs, writings, music, videos and more. People from six continents visit our website every day to learn and to enjoy our offerings.

The birthday celebration posted on YouTube features lots of interaction with our guests, friends and supporters as well as videos, songs, giveaway prizes, awards and amusing memories. Here’s an Eventbrite map showing the locations of people who registered for our birthday party — and it doesn’t include the many who attended without registering:

We’re delighted by the turnout and the reaction to our birthday bash. If you were among those who attended, thank you — and we hope you’ll want to relive some of those memorable moments captured on the video. If you weren’t there, definitely check it out on YouTube. In a time when our world too often feels troubling and challenging, our 20 Years of Humanity Birthday Bash serves as an antidote, full of caring and helping and hope.

Our 20th Birthday

Happy Birthday… to us!

The Humanity Project turns exactly 20 years old on November 3, 2025. And we think this calls for a celebration!

We hope you’ll join us from anywhere in the world on November 1st for our big party: “20 Years of Humanity: The Humanity Project Birthday Bash!” It’s a two-hour online extravaganza that will feature lovely giveaway prizes, videos, interactive activities, awards and much more.

You’ll find us on that Saturday afternoon from 12 noon to 2 p.m. on both Zoom and YouTube Live. It’s totally free… and we won’t do a hard sell for donations. This ain’t a telethon! It’s a celebration of two decades working to help both kids and adults feel like worthy human beings and to inspire them to treat everyone else as equally worthy. You’ll have the chance to win two tickets to a Miami Heat game, two $175 Mastercard gift cards and a $100 Walmart gift card along the way as you enjoy this fast-moving virtual event. You can register at no cost if you want a chance at the prizes. Or you can simply show up and soak in the entertainment.
