Welcome to
Harikoa Foundation

A secure, meaningful future for people living with disability, and peace of mind for families.

Harikoa Foundation is a family-led initiative to deliver life-long quality of life.  It therefore provides peace of mind, especially when families are no longer around.

 

We are building an inclusive model, to roll out nationally, that brings together housing, social connection, financial surety, and coordinated disability support.   Together, we can create a community where everyone can enjoy their best life. Join us on this journey towards a more inclusive future!

Live your best life, that rests on four pillars

A secure home, a real community, and an end-to-end solution combining financial surety and adequate supports - a holistic plan that will hold up over decades.

Harikoa is built around quality of life, not just a roof or a service. We focus on what truly matters:

  1. Housing surety though a network of homes

  2. Friendships and belonging

  3. Financial security that lasts

  4. Support that adapts as life changes

"What happens when parents and families are no longer around?"

Housing
Surety

A place called home, designed for dignity, long-term stability, and choice.

BestLife Connection Services

Belonging, natural friendships, social life, work, and community contribution.

Financial Surety

Protecting the future, reducing risk, building long-term security through working together.

Disability Support Services

"Just enough" support, coordinated with trusted providers, with real oversight and admin relief.

The Community Fund

A secure, professionally managed fund designed to own a portfolio of homes, co-owned by families, supporting long-term financial surety with a model that can serve families and attract impact capital at scale.

By working together, families can access housing options that would often be out of reach alone, while protecting and growing assets for the long term.

Two Pathways to Participate

1. ​Stay Informed

Take just 5 minutes to register your interest in Harikoa's mission. We will keep you updated on our progress, launch timelines, and opportunities across New Zealand.

2. Join the Rodney North Auckland Roll-out

Families in the Rodney/North Auckland region interested in participating in the pilot launch are invited to join our research process. This involves a 90-minute in-depth interview. Your input will directly shape what gets built.

"It is the first time that we believe that there is real hope for our child and for our family."

"What resonated was, what happens when we die, that's the thought you carry."
