About us

The Australian Literacy & Numeracy Foundation is a national charity seeking to assist people in our most marginalised communities to gain vital language, literacy and communication skills. Our specialised and innovative programs address the needs of a diverse range of individuals and communities – specifically supporting First Nations, refugee and other vulnerable Australians.

Unlocking potential through the power of literacy and learning.

Our vision

Literacy allows individuals to access education, participate meaningfully in our society and to have a voice. It is a basic human right.

We see a world where everyone, wherever they come from, however they identify, can confidently express themselves, engage with society and share their stories, embracing the extraordinary opportunities life brings.
