A huge ngā mihi nui to those who made it to the Day One Fundraiser and Launch Party on Wednesday 3 April. The generosity of spirit and tickets sold makes it possible for us to continue to provide opportunities and support for young people to express themselves on screen. When rangatahi tell their stories for a better tomorrow, they present to us a hopeful future where creativity is not only valued, but vital to how we live in the world. 🌏
