We believe that literacy is freedom. It's the way to a fairer and more inclusive Australia.

Our mission

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.

We believe that literacy is freedom- literacy allows individuals to access education, participate meaningfully in our society and to have a voice. It is a basic human right.

We're here to create a more inclusive Australia, unlocking potential through the power of literacy and learning.

Our vision

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.
