Pasifika Futures Ltd, the Whanau Ora Commissioning Agency for Pacific families in New Zealand, is pleased with the government’s budget announcement made last week, which stated an increase in the Whanau Ora allocation for the coming fiscal year. 

PFL Chief executive Debbie Sorensen says the boost signifies a commitment to the well-being and empowerment of Pacific families across the country.

“We are grateful for the opportunity to continue serving our Pacific families, as we have done for the last ten years. We are committed to seeing our families and communities thrive, and this budget will help us to ensure our resources and services are readily accessible to those who need them the most.”

PFL Chair, Dr Kiki Maoate ONZM FRACS, also welcomes the budget and emphasises the importance of partnership.

“We are pleased to see our services being acknowledged through this budget, especially as it highlights the work of our partners and navigators who have shown up time and time again to support our families.
