#HeyAdults: Kids Tell How To Save The World

The Humanity Project invites kids of all ages to join our new online conversation. We call it #HeyAdults... The series of short videos features children giving their own advice to adults about how to make a better world. Our Humanity Project kids start the ball rolling in a series of videos talking about such problems as stopping climate change, ending war, reforming social media and more. If you are 18 or younger, post your own one-minute video with the hashtag #HeyAdults. If you know a child who may want to take part, please pass on the info. Maybe kids can figure out some things we adults have yet to grasp.

Community and Corporate Responsibility -- With Thanks!

Today we applaud a caring and loyal friend of the Humanity Project — a friend celebrating their 100th birthday in 2022. We’re talking about our very good neighbors at State Farm. Yes, this is the centennial anniversary of that community-minded company’s founding. We are proud to call them one of our major sponsors.

And we hope you may want to listen to our new podcast with two wonderful representatives of State Farm: Jose Soto, Corporate Responsibility Analyst, and longtime State Farm agent Melba Ballard. You’ll hear a wide-ranging conversation about ways that this highly regarded corporation can help your community — and help you too. You’ll also learn that State Farm has just renewed their sponsorship of the Humanity Project with another generous grant, funding that allows us to provide our programs to both kids and adults for free. Thank you so much, State Farm! We can’t do it without you. Listen to the podcast.

One of State Farm’s annual efforts is called Neighborhood Assist. And this year, their program is bigger and better than ever. Anyone can submit an idea for a much-needed improvement in their community, with a real chance to win $25,000 to make it happen. Submit your pitch for whatever you feel is most needed locally — food for the homeless, maybe, or a community garden. Help for a school or care for the elderly. Find the details at www.neighborhoodassist.com.

Many many corporations talk about responsibility to the community. But State Farm is among the few that actually put their talk into action. We are deeply gratified to continue our long association with this quality company, which supports in tangible ways our work toward “Equality For Each, Respect For All.” We must say it again, then: Thank you, State Farm!

We Believe ... In Humanity

At the Humanity Project, we believe… in humanity itself. The value of our species and every individual.

Please watch this new inspiring video from our Humanity Project YouTube Channel, a discussion that explains our views concisely and clearly:

We take a long view of human history and the moral arc identified by Dr. Martin Luther King. We believe that if human beings embrace unity and collaboration amid our diversity, the equality of every individual, humanity's advance will continue.
