Hands For Humanity and How to Participate
Hands For Humanity is an NFT-based act of utility and philanthropy, the first of its kind in human history. 10,000 digital hands will be created, linked around the globe, and designed by various artists, cultures, and organizations featuring differing skin tones and ethnicities in a striking vision of unity and peace for the human race. The campaign will be raising funds for the Ken Kragen Foundation, WhyHunger, UNICEF Ukraine, F Cancer / Generaize, NRDC (Natural Resources Defense Council), Ocean Conservancy, and his family legacy.
A portion of the proceeds will also be used to create the Ken Kragen Memorial Metaverse which will be a living testament to his work, and the impact he had on the world. It will be a digital space to carry on Ken’s love in perpetuity and to truly time capsule the effect he had, so his message can be carried forward for generations to come. This Metaverse will serve as a monetized vehicle to make sure Ken’s mission is carried forward.
The first phase is to connect artists, influencers, organizations, and entities to create their own Hands For Humanity or to “Lend a Hand” in a way that represents their personal mission, cause of action, culture, ethnicity, art, or personal interpretation in a large-scaled and unified message of our shared humanity. Participants from the original We Are the World and Hands Across America will also be joining the movement.
The NFTs will be launched in partnership between Cosmic Wire, and Green Platform OneOf co-founded by tech entrepreneur Lin Dai, digital media executive Joshua James, and music industry veteran Adam Fell, in partnership with one of Kragen’s original collaborators, the legendary music industry icon Quincy Jones and Quincy Jones Productions.
