Kia ora, Talofa lava
For those of you who are new to our socials, we're a grassroots, whānau-run charity.
Although our personal journey starts with childhood cancer, our Charity's focus is much broader and we believe that in order to effect change, collaboration is the key.
The old phrase "many hands make light work" speaks true but it also leads to many experiences, many stories, many opportunities, etc. These can all have an exponential positive impact.
Joining superpowers is a smart way forward and we're doing just that with our Supermates (featured on our website).
But there's more - our vibe is all about representing unheard voices through storytelling, digital art, and combining the collective power of all charities and organisations that represent persons with disability or illnesses.
How are we doing that?
With technology of course - we're a small (but mighty) group of individuals who are on a mission to make change FUNNER!

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
