Hi Friend

At For Purpose we've been amongst it, supporting flooded teammates and providing digital assistance to organisations busy supporting those most in need. If there is anything we can do to support you and your organisation please get in touch.

In other news - We’ve got a new website! We’ve also got a couple of great projects for you to check out that illustrate the good that comes from collaborate design, and we want to talk about becoming a Living Wage Employer. Check them all out below.

Did we mention we’ve got a new website? At For Purpose we do our best to walk the talk, so of course we need the best tools to showcase our work and your incredibly important projects. The latest refresh of the forpurpose.nz website is vibrant and fun while serving its purpose, we have boiled down to the best bits to simply highlight our varied skills and experience and how we collaborate to create influential projects.

Digital campaigning with meaning is our thing, our projects impact change, we partner with movements to create a just, sustainable and equal world.


Ngā manaakitanga,
Kristin, Emma and the team

Power Up: ✊ Community Organising and Big Charities -

Many big charities are thinking deeply about their own power and about building the power of the communities they serve. They are also recognising that service provision and elite influencing alone will not deliver the sustainable and structural change they seek.
These twin realities are forcing them to fundamentally rethink their role and how they contribute to sustainable and transformational social movements.
