The Future Fund helps launch The Impact Awards!
7 October 2020
In 2019 we launched The Impact Awards with to celebrate and support young New Zealanders making a difference for our future, with $20,000 in prizes across four categories – climate, enterprise, inclusion, and wellbeing.
The inaugural Impact Awards attracted 200 applicants from 12 regions across New Zealand. The Awards Ceremony took place on the Saturday night during the weekend of Festival for the Future, and attracted 400 guests – including CEO’s and senior leaders from business and government, as well as young people and finalists from across the nation.
For a first time initiative, The Impact Awards has been hugely successful. Part of the money that we raised from The Future Fund campaign back in 2015 has helped to seed the awards, and we're incredibly excited to build on this.
