About Friends of Tonga
Friends of Tonga (FoT) is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to supporting the Kingdom of Tonga. Founded in 2018 by Returned Peace Corps Volunteers (RPCVs) after a devastating Category 4 Cyclone, FoT sought to support local disaster relief efforts, drive greater awareness of Tonga, and cultivate an engaged community to support the country. Over the past four years, FOT has expanded its mission to promote educational and human development, including partnering with the Tonga Ministry of Education to address the key challenges of limited educational resources, few native English speakers, and the proliferation of unsuitable classroom settings.
