Hope Into Humanity

Hope Into Humanity is a non-profit organization launched by Hundredth. Vocalist Chadwick Johnson says: "Hope Into Humanity is about getting back to basics, and about realizing our human responsibility of doing everything we possibly can to help other people, whether it be across the world or in a back yard. We're just starting this thing from the ground, and basically we want to unite with other people like us who want to see some change in the world, and if we unite together, our resources combined, and we get together as one we can make a difference, and I think that's what Hope Into Humanity is all about."

The Water Cause

Starting on the 1st January 2012, the band aimed to raise $20,000 in a 90-day period. This will provide clean water forever to people who are deprived of safe drinking water. In a statement by vocalist Chadwick Johnson on The Water Cause's promotional video, he says: "Hope Into Humanity is about getting back to basics, and the most basic necessity of humanity is water, so the first thing we want to do is launch The Water Cause, which will take 90 days and we'll attempt to raise $20,000 which will give 1000 people clean water forever.

This isn't about what religion you may follow, or what political stance you may have; this is about being a human, and taking care of humans that breathe the same air that we do but don't get the privilege of drinking the same water that we do, and I feel recognizing that need and doing what you can to help others meet that need is what this thing's all about."
