ABOUT US

Global Hope Missions, a youth and community development organisation operates from the Puketapapa area also known as Mt Roskill, Central Auckland. The cornerstone for GHM is the Global Youth Development & Creative Mentoring programmes identifying promising and useful evidence-based approaches to design prevention and intervention programmes for young people aged 6 – 24 years old. This reflects our vision and mission to support our young people and their families.

This was created due to young people struggling to engage and connect with their peers and wider community, lack of confidence and low self-esteem, identity crisis and being involved in the justice system to name a few. Research confirms that quality mentoring relationships can have a powerful and positive influence on the lives of young people as they grow and transition into adulthood. Ultimately, mentoring connects a young person to personal growth and development, social and economic opportunity, hence why GHM uses the vehicles of creative arts, sports and mental health, leadership, academic and entrepreneurial projects, family events to make a difference in the lives of young people, their family and community. Mentoring is weaved into these vehicles and designed around the young person’s interest, strengths and purpose.

Our effective GHM mentors are caring and experienced educators, musicians, local athletes, youth practitioners, university students, pasifika liaisons, social entrepreneurs and parents who provide advice, support, access to best practice resources and advocacy.
