Expressions on TV!

Did you catch our founder Emma on Kochie’s Business Builders? She shared the Expressions journey and how turning children’s artwork into meaningful tea towel keepsakes has fuelled community fundraising for over 25 years.

“There’s nothing better than seeing a child’s face light up when they spot their drawing on a tea towel in the kitchen – it’s a memory that sticks.”
