Calling All Facebookers …

Bob Knotts | June 24, 2011

Just a brief blog today to ask all you Facebook fans out there to help the Humanity Project. It’s very easy and painless — and we won’t bug you with emails or anything else. Basically, we just need you to go to our new Facebook official “Page” and click the “Like” button. That’s it.

We Need Your Drop

Bob Knotts | June 17, 2011

“We ourselves feel that what we are doing is just a drop in the ocean. But the ocean would be less because of that missing drop.” Mother Teresa … I like that quote by Mother Teresa. Very much. It suggests to me the importance of our daily efforts to make this world a better place, no matter how insignificant those efforts may seem to us. Because in the end, none of us has the power to change things alone … but we do have the power to help change things. We can add our drop. Call it a drop in the ocean or a drop in the bucket. Whatever. It’s an important drop.

The Shared Value Of Listening

Bob Knotts | June 10, 2011

Listening deeply to someone, no matter what our own beliefs, experiences, distractions or feelings may be, is an act of compassion. While the listener is giving this gift to the speaker, the listener is also receiving. Listening is a process of shared — and infinite — value. We all know first-hand how much it means for someone to listen when we need to be heard.

Great Community Partners

The Humanity Project starts June 2011 with a huge thank you to the Broward Sheriff’s Office. Once again. For the second consecutive year, BSO has awarded a major grant to the Humanity Project. This time around, they’ve even increased the amount so we can help many more people in our community.
