Our New Team Member

Gail Johnson, Humanity Project Leadership Council

Today, we welcome a new member of the Humanity Project team. Gail Johnson joins our distinguished Humanity Project Leadership Council, a hand-picked group of community leaders who assist our efforts in a variety of ways.

Gail is a 28-year-old college graduate who is pursuing a career in special needs education. She believes in educating all children in ways that offer a compassionate and welcoming environment. A family-oriented mother of one girl, Gail strives to make sure every child’s voice can be heard, regardless of race, religion, sexual orientation or personal beliefs. Now she will head up our work on racial equality, taking over for Gabby Bendel. (Thank you, Gabby, for your help! We look forward to working with you on other projects soon!)

We met Gail Johnson during our Humanity Club sessions with young girls this summer at Delevoe Park, where she serves as Recreation Director. Our Humanity Club inspires kids of color to believe in themselves and to lead their peers toward greater social equality and respect-for-all people. Gail was engaged and energetic each week and she clearly cared about making a difference. We knew she’d be a good fit for our Leadership Council.

Welcome, Gail, on behalf of everyone at the Humanity Project! We’re excited to keep making a difference …together.

Serious Team ... Having Fun

Sometimes it's important to know the faces behind an organization -- especially to get a feeling for the people who claim to help others through their charitable work. So today we offer some of the beautiful faces and beautiful people behind the work of the Humanity Project. Take a look at these seriously committed folks ... having some unserious fun at our annual Holiday Party for our Board of Directors and our new Leadership Council. These photos were taken by Keith Spencer, a pastor as well as the husband and father of one of our Leadership Council parent/child teams. We hope you'll enjoy sharing these moments with us. Happy Holidays to all!
