About Us
Hugh Callacher found himself pondering a critical question: why were values like kindness, thoughtfulness, sharing, and community seemingly absent in society? Instead, he observed a rise in prejudice, greed, and indifference.
Determined to revive the spirit of kindness and community, Hugh, a successful businessman, embarked on creating a platform dedicated to promoting support and compassion.
Launched in 2014, the charity has transformed and adapted over the years, continually embracing innovative ideas and people with similar values.
It all began with a question:
"Where's the kindness?"
