Amp Do your Thing Scholarships
Since 1998, we’ve been helping Kiwis do great things! With more than $1 million awarded across the country, more than 100 Kiwis (and counting) have been able to do outstanding things in their fields.
In 2010, we’re aiming to help even more Kiwis do their thing, with a total scholarship pool of $200,000. And every cent will go to deserving Kiwis who demonstrate the courage, passion, and commitment to make their dream a reality.

Brutus Powers explains his thing ………..
To work with New Zealands best upcoming musicians to help them reach their goals in being successful world class acts. From helping them with recording and mixing their music to performance and getting them involved in invaluable events to help with expose and sort after air time on radio and television. By giving these people the platform and essential skills they need to succeed in the industry I hope to be able to help them reach their dreams of becoming world class musicians who record albums and tour the world.
