“Often information comes from adults in adult language, but this is easy to understand.” The pair set big goals in sending imPower to schools throughout New Zealand despite warnings that the goal may be too large for a school project. “A lot of people told us to narrow our vision and that we needed a smaller goal. But we really wanted to do it, so we put in the hard work and we achieved our goal,” Angelina says. “We sent out around three magazines to every secondary school in New Zealand. Since then schools have contacted us asking for more copies,”Rachel says. The pair now want to use Find your Fire to put out a new magazine every year that focuses on a different issue affecting New Zealand youth. Their advice for current Year 10s starting their community projects in Term 3 is that “no dream is too big”. “A lot of people told us it would be too hard, but if everyone thought like that, nothing would ever get done,”Angelina says.
