ABOUT US
Deep rooted in South African communities, we are a collective of thinkers, doers, activists, reformers, and creative tailors working together to drive meaningful change.
Through bold action, strategic solutions, and creative advocacy, we transform lives and ignite progress with purpose and heart.
We specialize in crafting human-centred campaigns and platforms that shift narratives, inspire civic action, and amplify community voices. Our work bridges the gap between citizens, communities, and country using creative storytelling, participatory research, and behavioural insights to address urgent social challenges such as tobacco control, gender-based violence, climate justice, and youth mental health.

Community
We don’t work for communities we work with them. Because sustainable change starts locally, grows collaboratively, and thrives when rooted in shared purpose.

Advocacy
We don't whisper. We raise our voices through bold campaigns that challenge, mobilize, and empower. Advocacy is baked into our DNA.
Social Justice
We believe creativity should confront injustice not just decorate the status quo. We advocate for fairness, equity, and dignity amplifying the voices too often left unheard.

Clean Creativity
We create with integrity. Our work doesn’t manipulate it uplifts. We aim for clarity, honesty, and beauty that serves the truth.

Equality
We strive to reflect the world we’re working to build: fair, inclusive, and just. That means creating opportunities for all, and removing barriers wherever we can.

Innovation
We think creatively, act courageously, and build strategically. Innovation for us means daring to ask “What if?” and then designing the answer.

"On behalf of the Environmental Health Department, we want to extend a heart-felt thank you for your commitment to making the World No Tobacco Day event so successful. It was the vision of the Environmental Health Department to inform the public on the dangers of tobacco use and the benefits on committing to the 2021 theme which is "Commit to Quit". Your generous contributions and support helped make our vision a reality. Without you, this would have been just a dream. We look forward to working with you in the future. You are truly appreciated.
