The Rotary Club of Wellington and the Ākina Foundation created an award to help social enterprises in the Wellington region called the Rotary-Akina Social Enterprise Kick-start Award.  The joint venture provides $10,000 in cash to promising start-ups, with up to $8,000 for the top venture.

On Monday night we pitched to the judges and were named the Runner up, and were awarded $3000!

To apply for the award we created a 3-minute video which answered the following four questions:

• What social or environmental impact do you intend to have?
• How you plan to deliver and sustain your enterprise?
• Why you are the team to make this happen?
• What difference will this money make to your idea?
