" A ‘movement’ spurred by the collaboration of several organisations and institutions that are sold to fanning a positive spirit in and about our country, can contribute to a positive national psyche and encourage mass positive action that can change the landscape that affects everyone’s psyche. Every little bit makes a difference, and if we can mobilise everyone into a national collective, as we believe we can, we can ALL contribute…for good.
