The Humanity Project

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

Teaching The Kids

We were back at it just today, on a rainy Monday morning as I post this blog. Less than two hours ago, we were finishing up our latest Humanity Project in-school session. This time, we were in the elementary schools again to teach our highly praised Anti-bullying Through The Arts program to hundreds of kids at Plantation Elementary in Plantation, Florida. This community is a large suburb of Fort Lauderdale, right between Miami and West Palm Beach. The kids were great! We gave our program to every child in the school: pre-K through grade 5.

They applauded it, clapped to our music and laughed at our jokes. More importantly, we’re sure they will remember our valuable lessons. We’ll soon have the pre-post test scores back, results that in the past have proven that young kids indeed do learn from our program. If your South Florida school would like the Humanity Project’s free program to visit in the fall, please contact us. (It’s free thanks to support from our partners, including Broward Sheriff’s Office, State Farm, Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital, Children’s Services Council of Broward County and others.) We’re already lining up schools for the next term. If you’re located outside South Florida, we still can help provide our original anti-bullying books and music and videos as part of your school’s anti-bullying efforts. Just look for the “Contact” page above, click on that link, then email us. We’ll look forward to hearing from you!
