Teen Jobs - Help The Youth Of New Zealand To Find Jobs!

POSTING ON BEHALF OF MY 15-YEAR-OLD SON:
Did you know 11.2% of 15-19-year-olds in New Zealand are unemployed which costs taxpayers $345 million every year? These unemployment rates are forecast to go up.
I am Josh Callander and I am 15 years old. While I was looking for some part-time work, I discovered that there was no easy way to find the jobs that are out there for young people. I felt that young people had a lot to offer and they just needed an easier way to connect to employers.
Teen Jobs is a 100% free to use website that connects teenagers looking for work to employers and households. We flip the traditional job finding method to teenagers creating CV like profiles, then employers and households can simply search, which significantly reduces the cost and time involved with filling a job.
We currently are live in Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch, Hamilton, Tauranga and are going live in Napier/Hastings on the 1st of October. We hope to continue to expand throughout New Zealand, which will allow us to help more teenagers, but because we are free, we need money to support our growth.
All funds will go towards developing the website further and marketing. Developing the website will include new areas around New Zealand as well as upgrading and improving the website. Marketing of the platform is needed to increase the number of teenagers we can find jobs, as well as the number of jobs we have on offer.
Our vision is to try to lower the youth unemployment rate by making teenagers easier to employ, learn work skills and gain experience and to be more employment-ready when they pursue a career. Statistics show that teenagers that have regular employment are twice as successful within the workforce at age 25. We have had amazing success in our current areas and have 3,000+ teenagers signed up with 100+ job offers per month.
We have had amazing press including articles from:
