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!

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
