Toitoi celebrates the creative spirit of young New Zealanders. We believe that their work has purpose and deserves a wide audience.
Our philosophy is to treat young writers and artists with respect, handle their work with care and produce a beautifully designed journal of high quality that reflects how much we value and admire them.
Toitoi is also an independent social enterprise — we receive no government funding and exist entirely because of the support of our community. Every journal and Jillion purchased helps ensure that young Kiwi voices continue to be heard.
We are working towards establishing a charitable arm of Toitoi, which will allow us to partner with other organisations and receive grants and donations to secure an even stronger future for the publication.
In the meantime, the best way to support us is to encourage your librarians, team leaders, and heads of department to add our publications to their collections.
