On the 6th of September we are going to have our official launch at The Colebee. A Beautiful Thing is the result of combining the light shining work of our community organisations (represented by the yellow) with the resourcing waters of our partners (represented by the blue) to create a flourishing person, community and society (represented by the green.) Whatever part you play in the ecosystem of change, you are invited to celebrate with us.
We can't do this alone! So if you would like to partner with us, we have different levels of partnership that are outlined in our partnership package. Please get in touch through our contact page or fill in the partner form here to send us your details.

Get to know
our founder.
Who am I? I'm Michelle Temu - birth mother of five, step mother of four, mother in love of two and grandmother of one! After working and volunteering in the Not for Profit sector in New Zealand, Ethiopia and Australia for over 20 years, I wanted to do something different to help bring small to medium grassroots charities more income so they can sustain their social impact. The vision is to see communities flourish and to activate champions who would join with a cause that is greater than themselves.
Why did I choose professional fundraising as a career?
I have seen necessary community initiatives fold for lack of funding and I have the mindset, writing ability and networking skills to be able to create successful fundraising campaigns. It is something I have done voluntarily for years but as I want to invest more time in it, I realised I need to make a career out of it.
After working as a relationships coordinator for a NFP in Sydney for the last 3 1/4 years, I launched out to start my own consultancy company to work with both parts of the sector- the NFP's (the doers) and the Donors (the givers.) The fact is that both parties are giving in some shape or form, but more often than not, the people working on the ground with those in hard seasons, need more resources to help them flourish. I am here to bridge that gap. If you have the heart of a philanthropist and want to find out where you can give, or a community organisation struggling to resource your good work, please contact me for a discovery call.
