Humanity Rising is a student-led movement to empower youth to create a better, and more compassionate world.
Youth service has increased 8.5% during the pandemic!
Humanity Rising youth across the country stepped up quickly in response to many rising challenges during the pandemic. Here are just a few examples of innovative solutions created by outstanding young leaders...
-
Devin Moore,
founded
#RaceToSpeakUp after
being racially cyberbullied. Devin is working with New York State
legislators to bring mandatory bullying curriculum into schools.
He also co-founded "Behind the Screen"
Anti-Cyberbullying training for youth in response to the 73%
increase in cyberbullying during the pandemic;
- April, Katie, and Angela started Budding Companions to help the elderly community who are feeling isolated. They've trained over 100 youth volunteers to host virtual game nights, and more, for residents at over 30 senior living communities;
-
Katie Makarska created The Teen
Ease app to help youth who are experiencing anxiety and
depression learn relaxation techniques
At Humanity Rising, we inspire youth to find their service passion and make a difference, provide a platform to amplify their VOICES to inspire their peers to action and recognize and celebrate outstanding young changemakers with service scholarships.

Hosted, produced, marketed and edited by students, youth service leaders are interviewed by Humanity Rising Ambassadors in our What Cause Inspires You? Podcast series. Through the WCIY Podcast, students are provided a platform to share the social issues they are passionate about and the solutions they have created to address them. |
Examples of WCIY guests include:
|
Dhruv Pai, who is the Co-founder and President of Teens Helping Seniors, which was formed during COVID-19 crisis to provide delivery of groceries and medications to seniors and vulnerable populations
| Anya and Kat, who are artists and proponents of racial equity in the arts that co-founded The Colorization Collective to create space for teen artists of color who may feel underrepresented in the art community.
| Natalie Salvatierra, the 16-year-old founder of Solely Sunshine, a volunteer organization that spreads encouragement (what she likes to call sunshine) to people with mental health conditions
