Founder of ShoeBox Christmas - A Kōrero with Pera Barrett 

“The key is starting, so that we can start making a difference.” - Pera Barrett Nau mai, haere mai, welcome to another episode of Paperback Guerrillas - mana enhancing kōrero (life-improving conversations) with people from all walks of life, sharing insights, inspiration and tools to empower everyday people like you and I can turn into positive actions and change. In this introductory episode, I discuss why I started the Shoebox Christmas project in Wellington, why the Paperback Guerrillas podcast was formed, and how the two are similar.  I’d normally introduce a bit more about the show guest here, but since it’s me: kia ora, I’m the founder of Shoebox Christmas Aotearoa, New Zealander of The Year Local Hero recipient 2019, writer/rapper, and as of now, your podcast host. I hope this gives you little insight into why we started this podcast, and what you can expect in the upcoming episodes.

Pera Barrett - why start Shoebox Christmas & a podcast? Growing a platform for good (#1)

Pera Barrett talks to host Sadie Coe about being mana whenua of Ōtaki and Kāpiti Island, about his music and writing, and about how a tragic accident changed his path in life and led to his setting up two charities to help children from lower socio-economic areas: Shoebox Christmas, and Stationery Starter Packs. We end with a track from Pera performing as Percieve.
