1000+ celebration !
Join us for a truly special celebration and an unforgettable evening of empowerment!
The Mathematics for a Lifetime Charitable Trust is absolutely bursting with pride to announce a monumental achievement: With your support, we've officially had the privilege of helping our 1000th child on their journey with mathematics! This incredible milestone is a testament to our unwavering commitment to improving the well-being of underprivileged and financially stressed children across New Zealand, giving them not just essential academic tools, but also hope, confidence, and a vital pathway to a brighter future.
MFAL - focus on breaking down barriers and building futures!
At Mathematics for a Lifetime (MFAL), we are committed to making this a reality.
We are a charitable trust driven by the belief that mathematical education is a tool to eliminating inequalities and barriers in the lives of less fortunate children, youth, and new immigrants throughout New Zealand.
Our work extends beyond just numbers.
We connect communities, providing professional mathematical tuition and support that enhances not only academic skills but also a child's overall well-being and quality of life.
This means families in financial stress can access the same educational opportunities as other children, fostering confidence, resilience, and a lifelong love of learning.
Discover how you can help us empower the next generation.
