So, what’s Humanity Stoked, anyway?

Humanity Stoked Is Skateboard Documentary Unlike Anything Ever Seen Before

It’s an exploration into the challenges of moving humanity forward, as seen through the eyes of the world’s most iconic professional skaters, activists, scientists, artists, musicians, and educators, all of whom share unique experiences and perspectives shaped by their love of skateboarding.  

It’s a philanthropic journey as told through luminaries and thought-leaders memorializing their personal stories, passions, perspectives and their connections to skateboarding, humanity, philanthropy, arts and sciences, music, human rights, LGBTQ rights, environmental issues, politics, and more, all while raising awareness and money to help make a positive difference in people’s lives.

Let’s Understand Philanthropy & Humanity

Philanthropy: (from Greek φιλανθρωπία) means etymologically, the love of humanity, in the sense of caring, nourishing, developing, and enhancing what it means to be human.

“Over time, the connotative shift of the word ‘philanthropy’ towards money, not to mention great wealth, has taken it out of reach for most people, whom as a result,  have never even considered incorporating philanthropy into their lives. The ripple effect robs humanity of so much love at a time when it needs it most. It’s about connecting more, and caring more about the world all around us.” 
~ Michael Ien Cohen, Founder, the WhatStopsYou.org Foundation
