PlazaNow – Together We Can
Our Belief
At the heart of PlazaNow is a firm belief in shaping a brighter future for Australian youth, especially those who face difficulties in life. Our mission exceeds traditional business boundaries, placing emphasis on community, responsibility, and change.
Commitment to Quality and the Environment
We have promised ourselves to market products that are not only of superior quality but also kind to our planet. As stewards of the environment, our products are carefully selected to leave a minimal carbon footprint.
Giving Back: The iLead Initiative
By supporting PlazaNow, you contribute to a cause that directly benefits our nation’s youth. A significant 50% of our profits fund the iLead Leadership program, a transformative initiative designed to help young leaders, equipping them with the resilience and skills to overcome life’s challenges.
Our Esteemed Clientele
PlazaNow flourishes on the trust and loyalty of clients like you. Your unwavering support fuels our ambition, and through sustained collaboration, we aim to foster lasting relationships rooted in shared values and visions.
Our Product Range: Quality Meets Ethics
Our online selection is a testament to our dedication to quality. We champion products that, where possible, are proudly Australian-made, ensuring our customers receive nothing but the best.
A Journey Rooted in Compassion
Every journey initiates with a single step, and ours started with a burning desire to touch lives. Inspired by Mary Frances Berry’s words, we believe in acting when others hesitate, and in becoming the change when it’s most needed.
Voices of Hope: A Testament
Someone shared their personal story that reminds us of how our actions can really make a difference. They said, you might have just been nice to me once, but to me, it was like a lifeline. If you hadn’t helped me, I might not be here today.
The Alarming Realities
Our youth, who are the future leaders, are facing difficult problems that can be really tough to handle. They’re dealing with issues like drug use, depression, and even thoughts of ending their own lives, which are very serious and concerning.
A Personal Note from our CEO
Hi, I’m Nihal Samarasinghe
The cause is deeply personal. I have witnessed firsthand the devastating effects of substance abuse on young lives, including my own children. But with resilience, support, and determination, there’s hope. Every child, every youth, deserves a chance at redemption and a brighter future. Through PlazaNow, we strive to make this vision a reality.
The Stark Reality: Youth Suicide
It’s heart-wrenching to acknowledge that suicide stands as the leading cause of death among Australians aged 15–24. This alarming statistic is a loud and clear call for collective action.
The Vision Ahead
With an unwavering commitment to change, PlazaNow looks towards a horizon where every youth, irrespective of their challenges, finds the support, love, and opportunities they need. We invite you to be a part of this transformative journey, as a client or a fundraising partner.
Together, hand in hand, we can create a positive change, ensuring every young Australian has the chance they deserve. We look forward to welcoming you into our PlazaNow family. Together, we will make a difference.
