There really are endless ways to make a positive difference in this troubled world. Many of us try to do this, but still may wonder: “Am I making a difference?” At the Humanity Project, we believe that every genuine effort to help does make a difference. So we absolutely love this short tale that clearly makes a point about this very thing. It is adapted by us here from an old Hawaiian fable. We think you’ll enjoy reading it …

The Humanity Project has an important mission, yes — but we also like to have some fun. And what better season of the year for laughter and joy than the holidays? We’re also an organization that focuses on sharing as a key tool to improve individual lives and society — that’s really what we’re talking about when we use the words “cooperation and social connection.” It’s all about sharing our best and helping others to do the same through practical but innovative programs. So this year we’re going to share one of our favorite Christmas recordings with you. I can almost guarantee that this will come as something of a shock. A delightful shock. Check out this version of “Twas the Night Before Christmas” by Art Carney if you want to smile.

They say gratitude is among the more important qualities for human well-being. At the Humanity Project, we believe that’s true. And we indeed are grateful at this organization for many things — including the wonderful friends we have. One of those friends is Children’s Services Council of Broward County. For the fourth consecutive year, CSC is sponsoring the anti-bullying efforts of the Humanity Project. Today, we’re sending out our most sincere gratitude to everyone there. Thank you!

The Humanity Project believes in humanity, despite all the ills of our modern world. But we are not in any way a political or religious group. We take no position on matters of domestic or foreign politics. Still, some issues transcend politics — and we feel one of those is the struggle by lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people to be treated as full human beings. The Humanity Project’s anti-bullying program teaches that bullying any student hurts every student and the LGBT debate ties in with the issue of bullying.

The Humanity Project wants to help your school. Bring our Anti-bullying Through The Arts program to the elementary students in your life. If you look down a couple of blog posts below this one, you can read a bit more about our acclaimed program. It truly is acclaimed — by educators, counselors, prevention specialists, even the news media. With the holidays upon us, we won’t be back in the schools until 2012. But we’re already lining up our schedule for the winter-spring semester.
To create and implement innovative programs that teach children and adults how to use cooperation and social connection for individual development and grassroots community improvement.
