About Us
Who Are We?
LIFT Social Enterprise is based in the Hawke’s Bay, New Zealand, and has the vision of 100% youth employment for our region. We support young people (16-24 years) into sustainable and fulfilling employment and self-employment.
Establishment of LIFT has been a direct response to issues identified through our engagement with young people, parents, whanau, communities, service providers, tertiary and secondary education/training sector and employers in Hawke’s Bay. Doing things differently to support young people into fulfilling sustainable employment or entrepreneurship is critical.

As soon as I walked in I felt like I belonged.
You can tell they will always be there not just when the course ends.
At LIFT no one is left behind.
I wouldn’t have been able to achieve what I’ve achieved without LIFT.
LIFT spends more time on you than teachers spend.
Other services just have you there to tick the box but, not LIFT. They care.
