Ole Lafitaga Trust

Nestled in the heart of Auckland, the Ole Lafitaga Trust has been a beacon of hope and support for over three decades. Established with the vision to empower individuals and families in need, we have grown from humble beginnings into a comprehensive network offering various services designed to uplift our community. At the heart of our mission lies Employment - helping those who have fallen on hard times reclaim their place in the workforce. We offer tailored career guidance, skills training, and job placement programs that provide the foundation for long-lasting self-sufficiency. But we know that finding a job is only part of the equation; it's equally important to ensure one's emotional wellbeing. That's why our Counselling services are always available for those who need someone to talk to, providing a safe space for healing and growth. When hunger knocks on the door, no family should go hungry. The Ole Lafitaga Trust Food Bank Service ensures that nutritious meals reach families in need, while our Bread Service offers fresh bread daily to anyone who might be struggling. And because every family deserves a home, our Furniture Bank Service provides essential household items to help people start anew. But we believe education is the key to unlocking a brighter future for everyone. Our Education and Literacy programs strive to close the gap in knowledge and skills, with tutoring, workshops, and resources for children and adults alike. And our Family Support services offer guidance on parenting, budgeting, and more, so that families can thrive together. The Ole Lafitaga Trust is not just an organization; it's a community of compassionate individuals united by a common purpose - to make Auckland a city where everyone has the chance to succeed. We invite you to join us in our mission and be part of something truly special. Together, we can create lasting change for those who need it most.
