The Kindness Institute

"Our vision is for every young person in Aotearoa to have the tools to overcome challenges, improve their wellbeing and live a meaningful life.

Our Mission:

TKI exists to empower marginalised communities in Aotearoa, to support wellbeing, through movement and mindfulness, community and leadership. We strive to create equity in wellbeing through our mahi (work) that is financially accessible, is grounded in te ao Māori and focuses on extensive, long-lasting change within the communities we serve.

Our youth are empowered to teach mindfulness, yoga and stress management tools to their community. This model has been hugely successful to date, especially with regard to enhancing wellbeing and strengthening identity, connection and access to opportunities.

Our kaupapa is also focused on educating, encouraging and promoting mental health and wellbeing, as well as promoting community connectedness, social participation and cultural expression."
