What we’re about
Humanism is a non-theistic world view. Humanists are interested in human rights, the separation of church and state, and making the world a better place for everyone. We look to science, reason, and empathy to guide us in looking for solutions to problems in our lives and in the world.
Some of the goals of our group:
- to create a supportive community for humanists in CNY
- to put our values into action by helping the local community through volunteering and community service
- to educate people about humanism and other non-theistic worldviews

See all- Updated Location!! Volunteer at Sandwich SaturdayNeeds location
Let's do some good for goodness' sake at Sandwich Saturday!
We'll meet at DeWitt Community Church between 9:45 and 10:00 am to make sandwiches with other volunteers from We Rise Above the Streets. Then, around 11 we'll all go downtown to hand out sack lunches, toiletries, clothing, and other necessities to community members who could use a hand, whether they are unhoused or just having a hard time making ends meet.
If you have a CNYHA t-shirt, wear it! If you don't--we'll give you one!
We’ll meet in the parking lot of the middle school. If you arrive after 10, just come on in and look for us inside!
Please check the We Rise Above the Streets Facebook page before you come. There are sometimes last-minute changes to time or location. We will try to pass those on here, but just in case, check in on their Facebook page. - Syracuse Shakespeare-In-The-Park: Twelfth NightThornden Park Amphitheater, Syracuse, NY
