Help me to help my people :O

I'm running 10k for a local charitable trust: Asian Community Transformation Trust.

I've always been passionate to see Asian communities thrive in New Zealand.

I grew up as an immigrant in this beautiful country, but it was all that amazing on the inside.

I was bullied, I don't feel belonged as a Chinese or a Kiwi, I was confused about my identity.

In 2009, I decided to give up becoming a Fire Engineer and became a youth worker.

Since then, I've seen young people thrive in a community they can belong in, become confident as they grow skills that can impact others positively, and start to embrace their identity as Asian Kiwis.

I have also seen how broken/struggling families can damage a young person.

I have heard the challenges immigrant families face and their devastating impact on marriages.

I have been pained by the tragic passing of young people.

And I want to be part of the change.

Besides my work/career in this space, I want to also raise even more awareness by running 10k and sharing my stories on my social media.

I want to see Asian immigrants supported and empowered to raise healthy, contributing next generations that will build up Aotearoa together.

Would you support this cause?
