Project powered by Pep Talk
Project 'One million happy thoughts' is committed to contributing funds to high impact initiatives that uplift and empower children and teens - with a vision for both immediate and long term results to reduce negative societal issues and create a brighter future for all New Zealanders.

This impact is about providing immediate results by investing in already successful initiatives, that are out in our communities changing lives everyday. Are objective is to help them expand their great work, so they can reach more, do more, and impact more.

KEY OUTCOMES

  • Provide nurturing environments for vulnerable children and teens, that offer a source of hope.
  • Support children and teens with tools and resources to overcome difficulties.
  • Offer opportunities for young people to express their talents and reach their potential.

INTRODUCING THE INITIATIVES WE WILL SUPPORT

The #1 criteria for initiatives we select to support is that they grab our attention in a strong way by the proven and profound impact they are having in society, by supporting vulnerable children or teens to navigate the most challenging of life situations. We are looking for incredible initiatives that are lead by true Kiwi Heroes, who give their time, expertise and passion and are positively changing lives. Their work needs to be scaleable, so that when we provide more dollars, they can immediately expand their reach and impact more young lives. This way we can see that the funds we provide will have an immediate tangible impact.
The first programme we have ear marked to support is The Canterbury Rams' In-Schools Mentoring Programme. This programme completely fitted with our selection criteria. We were instantly in awe of the great work that Alan Harrison and his team from Canterbury Rams are doing with some of Christchurch's most vulnerable kids. We can not wait to help them reach more and impact more!
We are currently researching child & youth initiatives achieving success in our communities.
