The Journey Begins - Project K Launch Waikato

Join us for a special midday event marking the official return of Project K to the Waikato.

Hosted by the Graeme Dingle Foundation, this event will celebrate the relaunch of one of our most transformative positive youth development programmes in the region. Together with business leaders, stakeholders and valued supporters, we will share our vision for empowering more Waikato young people to build resilience, confidence and belief in their potential.

Guests will hear from Founder Sir Graeme Dingle, alongside a Project K alumni who will share their personal journey and the lasting impact of the programme. The event will also outline opportunities to support Project K through sponsorship and partnership, helping ensure its long-term success in the Waikato.

We are especially excited to reconnect with Project K alumni, many of whom are now business owners and leaders in the region, as we celebrate both how far they have come and the next chapter ahead!
