SPORTME TOO
Some kiwi kids have never experienced being part of a sports team. Sport helps to develop who we are as people, it supports the development of character and provides a sense of belonging. Our SPORTME TOO initiative supports young people that are not engaged in playing sport because of the cost of participation.
ACTIVE KIDS
We reduce barriers for young people to be physically active by visiting schools, and community groups to support and educate young people and their facilitators about the importance of being physically active to maintain well-being.
Some of the groups we visit do not have enough sports equipment to go around. It’s our goal to change that. We grant equipment to identified groups that need support.
LEAD WITH CHARACTER
We believe sport and character development have the ability to positively transform the lives of people and communities, providing a connection and sense of belonging toward a greater good.
Our Lead With Character initiative represents the energy of our founders and teaches key character strengths to young people through leadership development. We have a unique opportunity to positively transform lives and believe everyone wants to be great, however, young people need to be intentionally taught and given the tools required to be an outstanding leader of character. Our goal is to teach young people essential skills of self-awareness, respect, self-responsibility, self-discipline, self-belief, self-confidence, self-control and self-forgiveness.
