I Am Hope is a charitable initiative known for its advocacy and support for mental health and well-being, particularly for youth. Launched by Mike King, a well-known New Zealand comedian and mental health advocate, Mike’s personal journey and challenges with mental health led him to be a vocal advocate for mental health support and awareness.
Since our inception in 2013, our driving force has been to instigate a positive shift in societal attitudes towards mental health. Our primary goal is to dismantle the stigma surrounding this crucial area. We aim to normalise the ‘inner critic’ – that small, persistent voice inside each of us that occasionally whispers doubts about our worthiness. Our school talks are designed to impart a vital message to young Kiwis: an overactive inner critic doesn’t signify mental illness; rather, it’s a hallmark of being human.
Today, the I Am Hope team consists of dedicated individuals across various fields. Each member brings their passion and expertise to deliver our diverse program and partnerships to the youth of New Zealand forever changing the stigma around mental health and ensuring no young person goes without support during the hard parts of their lives.

Doors open NEXT WEEK for year three of the Auckland Home & Garden Show, and it’s a big one! 🔥
We’re excited to welcome 190+ exhibitors this year, bringing more ideas, inspiration, and innovation than ever before.
How cool are Wizard Fire Pits! Changing the way people enjoy outdoor fires with their cleverly designed system that’s up to 99% smokeless. That means no more dodging smoke or stinging eyes, just a cleaner, more comfortable way to relax, connect, and toast a marshmallow or two.
See you next week Auckland friends!
