We’re unleashing creativity in young people.

Creativity is the essence of what it means to be human.
.avif)
It’s the spark that awakens possibility,
the lens through which we see the world not as it is, but as it could be.
.avif)
Creativity invites us to explore the far reaches of our imagination, guiding us to new ways of thinking, feeling, and being.
Our mission is to rekindle that
spark in young people - encouraging them to dream wildly,
think freely, and shape a future brimming with wonder and potential.
Creativity isn’t just about making things;
.avif)
it’s about seeing with fresh eyes and opening ourselves to curiosity.
It’s the gift of finding beauty in the unexpected, connecting what others might overlook, and imagining the world anew.
Our mission is driven by three pillars

Direct Grant Making

Where we provide grant funding directly to young people. We aim to meet young people directly, give them our absolute belief and then back that up with money. Learn more about Protostars here
Indirect Grant Making
We cannot affect cultural change at scale alone. However, we can be smart about deploying the resources and capital we have access to to create change on a larger scale. Through indirect grant-making, we aim to fund projects and organisations that work to unleash and encourage creativity in young people at scale. Learn about Project funding here
Storytelling
We can’t fund every young person, so we use storytelling to unleash creativity. Stories scale, and through storytelling, we can inspire an infinite number of people to discover their creativity. We draw stories from our Direct and Indirect funding strategies. Stories are the flywheel for both of these strategies. We use stories to reinforce our belief in the people we fund, help them build confidence through exposure and community building, and break into new communities and find even more creative wild hearts. Follow our stories on Instagram, through our blog or even our Curations.
Through these, we support young people, partner with like-minded organisations, and share stories that inspire others to explore their creative potential.
