The Humanity Project

Teaching action for the greater good that also serves our highest individual interests.

All Mommies Welcome

Bob Knotts | August 23, 2011

Today we’re very glad to announce an important new partnership. The Fort Lauderdale Mommies organization represents moms all over South Florida, from southern Miami-Dade County up through Broward to the very top of Palm Beach County. This group is part of the national Mommies Network, a 501c3 nonprofit just like the Humanity Project. Both nationally and locally, these mommies help other mothers to find support and friendship and even some fun in their communities. The Humanity Project is proud to officially partner with the South Florida chapter.

Sponsoring In Style

We welcome a new sponsor today to the growing list of Humanity Project sponsors and community partners. Tease Salon in Fort Lauderdale is a socially conscious business, helping many nonprofit groups to do the work that improves our society. Luann and her team care about the South Florida community –and their actions show it. Tease joins Broward Sheriff’s Office, State Farm, Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital, Children’s Services Council, Office Depot Foundation and many others.

“How Can I Help?”

Bob Knotts | August 12, 2011

We ask ourselves the same words over and over at times like this: “How can I help?” Perhaps after the earthquake in Haiti or the tsunami in Japan. Now it’s the horrible humanitarian crisis in Somalia that makes us say it: “How can I help?” We think the real answers may go beyond the obvious thing, which is to donate money. We encourage such donations, of course. They add drops to the bucket of international relief flowing to Somalia and the nearby refugee camps in Kenya — and as we’ve written in this space before, our “drop in the bucket” is important.

Neighbors Helping Neighbors

We were interested this week in a new survey about neighbors, a study that just came out. It suggests that your neighbors probably care about you much more than you may suspect — and that you may care about them more than you know too. The survey shows that 83 percent of people are willing to assist a neighbor who is experiencing financial problems.
