Max is moving forward

Through Grow a Star, Max was able to complete his learner licence and take five professional driving lessons – an important first step toward gaining independence and accessing future training and employment opportunities.

He’s now working toward his restricted licence, which will allow him to drive on his own within restricted hours. While he hasn’t yet completed any driving tests beyond his learner, Grow a Star has helped remove the financial barriers that would have made this goal much harder to reach.

This support has given Max the confidence to keep progressing at his own pace. With time and continued effort, he’s on track to achieve a key milestone in his life that will open doors for his future.

We’ll be following Max’s journey over the coming months – stay tuned for updates as he continues working toward his restricted licence.

Grow a Star welcomes applications from young people in New Zealand at any time of the year. If you know someone who could benefit from this kind of support, we would love to hear from you.
