Our story

We were born from a simple belief: when neighbours are resourced and respected, they become the architects of their own future.

QNPF began as a modest neighbourhood collective committed to honouring the creativity already present in our communities. We met in living rooms, faith centres, and local schools to listen before we designed solutions.

Over time those conversations shaped programmes centred on youth leadership, holistic health, and sustainable livelihoods. We learned that trust grows when residents lead the way and see their ideas reflected in the work.

Today we partner with grassroots organisations, local government, and long-time neighbours to co-create initiatives that are transparent, compassionate, and measurable. Every milestone is a shared win powered by community voices.

Values we live by

These principles keep us accountable to the communities that entrust us with their stories, dreams, and momentum.

Dignity First

We champion solutions that honour the lived experience of every person we serve.

Listening Deeply

Community voices guide our programmes from concept to measurement.

Transparent Stewardship

We invest donor trust responsibly and communicate impact openly.

Shared Leadership

We cultivate leaders of all ages who co-design change with their neighbours.

Learning Out Loud

We iterate with humility, sharing insights and adapting programmes alongside community partners.

Joyful Collaboration

We celebrate cultural traditions, creativity, and play as vital ingredients for lasting impact.

Milestones of impact

Every step forward is a celebration shared with civic partners, families, and volunteers across the region.
