Ask yourself - are todays youth being transmitted the right values through social media? Do we want the next generations to become adults always stretching to ridiculous lengths for attention? Do we want to teach the children that how many ‘followers’ you have is the holy grail? Do we want to pass on these values of shallow, self-involved egotism and worshipping false idols? Do we truly believe that the current social media landscape is good for our species and the world inwhich we live? Do we believe that the information we are sucked in to consuming, creating and endorsing has optimal levels of value and meaning? Our view is a resounding NO, so we're acting on it...

We believe, that with such a powerful tool as social media giving the ability to spread content across communities, it needs to be utilised to a fuller extent. We believe it is a tool that can be utilised to solve worldly issues and disasters. A tool that can be used to enable people to become the best versions of themselves. That can be used to strengthen, engage and unite communities.
