Why It Matters

In Aotearoa, more than one million adults face challenges with literacy and numeracy. Many Māori and Pasifika people fall below Level 3, which can impact job performance, self-belief, and career progression.

FOFO is here to change that—through training that breaks barriers and unlocks potential.

Our programmes don’t just teach skills. They restore confidence, build identity, and connect people to a brighter future.

What We Do

  • Strengthen essential skills for daily tasks, clear communication, and workplace safety, grounded in Pacific values.

  • Develop confident leaders and foster strong, collaborative teams that reflect Pacific principles of community and collective success.

  • Empower employees with practical money management skills to reduce stress and support family wellbeing.

  • Build respectful, honest communication skills to improve relationships and create a harmonious work environment.

  • Support mental health and resilience, incorporating Pacific concepts of taha wairua (spiritual health) and whanau (family).
