Organisation Summary

The Australian Literacy and Numeracy Foundation (ALNF), established in 1999, is a national charity assisting people in our most marginalised communities to gain vital language, literacy and communication skills. ALNF’s specialised, innovative and proven 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 and that 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.
