Spark That Chat touring North Island schools to get future generations sharing their pits and peaks of mental health - and loving life!

"Need a chat?" Tamariki and rangatahi should feel their futures are full of potential stoke and they can live to the max! Jack Jensen, founder of Spark That Chat, is on a mission to inspire and encourage young people to connect, share stories and experiences of mental health, and support peers to fuel their awesomeness.

Visiting schools and colleges in all regions of the North Island over 2 weeks in March 2025, Jack will speak to these communities about his motivational life journey and the importance of honest discussion around mental health. His super-relatable personality and prowess as an extreme sports athlete has made Jack a role model for many young people. Jack's speeches will be filmed, as will the interviews with local legends conducted along the way. Epic social media content will be produced and released across Facebook, Instagram and TikTok, spreading the message that TALKING ABOUT MENTAL HEALTH IS COOL!

This priceless education session will be free to schools/students, but Jack and his 2-man team need to survive on the road for 2 weeks. Please donate to support Spark That Chat with transport, travel, accommodation and food while they produce fantastic content that will be shared with MILLIONS. Get shout outs on the socials and become one of us! Join Jack in this passion project to make things better so our young people are more resilient and never feel they have nothing to live for. They are the future - let's help them believe it is going to be INCREDIBLE!!
