It is through stories that we connect with others. Stories make complex ideas more relatable and also more memorable. In a world flooded with information and constant stimulation, it is important to have a look at the stories we are telling ourselves and our children. Too many scary stories out there that might make you lose hope and put your head in the sand.
But it does not have to be like this. It is time to tell a different story. One filled with hopeful action. Not all is lost. Yes, it is going to be a difficult road, but TOGETHER we can create a future that is worth living for.
Little Eco Ninja supports not-for-profits and for purpose businesses with their storytelling to accelerate social and environmental impact. Not-for-profits often have limited resources to effectively share their impact stories. But, impact storytelling is essential for engaging supporters, raising funds, and building awareness. Without strong narratives, a social media plan, engaging content and effective communication across all channels, it's difficult to connect with your audiences and convey the true scope of your work.
Hi there 👋🏼
I'm Alex and I initially founded Little Eco Ninja to set up an online store for more eco friendly products. I ordered a whole palette of Soulbottles from Berlin which came a few months later via ship and where ready for me to pick up at Melbourne Port.
A few market Sundays later (thanks Daylesford!) I had to take a bit of a break due to a tricky personal time, and when I was ready to dive back into it I suddenly had a change of heart.
Promoting more stuff? Even if what I sell is more sustainable, I felt like I wanted to promote repair, reuse, repurpose and upcycling more. Also, there were already amazing shops out there who had all the amazing eco products you could ever wish and hope for. Check out my blog for some recommendations!
In the meantime, I've learnt about the effects of climate change and how far we're already down the road. Instead of falling into dispair or allowing myself to grief I threw myself into every climate action group in my area that was working to 'do' more and 'talk' less. During my time with local community groups I often found that they were doing some amazing work, but that work never actually saw the light due to lack of knowledge of social media.
So I saw myself organising a lot of events such as film screenings and panel discussions, as well as creating content for websites, events and social media to get more of the community engaged in climate action.
Little Eco Ninja's purpose was born! Helping not-for-profits and for purpose organisations with their storytelling to create real impact and show people how fun it can be to work on difficult solutions TOGETHER!
