Hauora Hinengaro
What if a simple t-shirt or squish toy could help save a life? Hauora Hinengaro is a student-led business created by six Kings students who have one goal: making mental health conversations normal for young people. Our sustainable t-shirts feature meaningful designs and messages that encourage people to “talk about it”.
Our squish toys help reduce stress and anxiety in a simple way. Every purchase supports mental health initiatives through donations to the Sir John Kirwan Foundation. We are not just selling products, we’re building a movement focused on awareness, support and conversation. Visit our website here.
Rise After Disaster
As a group of five young entrepreneurs we have created a business called Rise After Disaster. We are selling hoodies to raise awareness around natural disasters. We want to support recovery projects and education around disasters as it is a big problem around New Zealand and all over the world. Our idea was driven from the Mt Maunganui landslides which affected many people's lives. With every sale a percentage of the money will go towards the Salvation Army. We are selling our unique stylish hoodies for $60 and you can find us on Instagram here.
STANDUP
STANDUP is a business that sells uniquely designed t-shirts to a demographic of females who believe strongly in standing up against domestic violence for women and children. Our t-shirts have been designed to have trendy colours and a unique logo to represent standing up with a fashionable purpose, creating clothing that allows people to express their values with confidence.
STANDUP is more than just a t-shirt brand, it is a movement that encourages women all over New Zealand to use their voice and show support for one another. Please reach out if you have any questions @standup.collective
