Valour

$175 donated
Given by 8 generous donors in 3 years

We want to open up conversations about mental health, making a change dance by dance.

Wellington

Valour means facing life's difficulties with an attitude of strength and courage found from within oneself, with the collective support of a community and with a little faith. Often times it's the battle of the mind where strength and courage is needed the most.

Valour is a brand that recognises there is strength in admitting weakness or finding the courage to speak up and ask for help. Battles are not just fought and won on a field physically anymore. They are fought and won in the mind internally.

Through the creative medium of dance, music and videography we hope to firstly raise awareness for mental health, that it exists and that it’s okay to not be okay.

For all this to be possible, we need your help in producing these videos. It takes a team to be able to do this; script writer, videographer, editor, researcher. As well as having to pay for hiring a venue to film at certain locations, lighting equipment if necessary, creative artists etc.

It would mean so much to us to get these projects out to the public eye and make a little difference and shed a light to those suffering.

Here are a couple topics we are working on:

* Self-Appreciation

* Discrimination

* Perinatal Depression

Use of funds

Funds will be used to produce dance videos relating to mental health. Surplus of donations - will be donated to a mental health organisation. If things don't go to plan, donations will be put towards the video and we will self fund the rest.
