The Rules
There are no eliminations and the only competition is limited time and their own egos. The Thrivors have to live in a Win Win Wins way, where they Win, while others Win, while the World wins too and, at the same time, fulfill 4 critical tasks:
A SYMBOL OF HOPE
To create an inspiring visual art piece in collaboration with the community, that will remain long after they have gone.
THE GOOD DOERS
To support the amazing individuals in the community who selflessly dedicate their lives to help the people around them. Our Thrivors must help realize the dreams of this community’s unsung heroes during their short stay.
COMMUNITY OUTREACH
To bring vital upliftment to the community – from care givers, to youth & children and any other community groups within the town
THE GREATEST SHOW FOR EARTH
To put on a concert, co-created by and with the people of the community, showcasing the amazing local talent, celebrating the good-doers and enthusing a deep joyous sense of purpose.
