The PolyStrong Leadership Foundation organizes and produces events and systems that bring together some of the most successful and influential Pacific Islanders for panel discussions, workshops, and networking events. Our goal is to inspire, educate, and empower the next generation of leaders, providing opportunities for participants to expand their horizons and open doors.
The PolyStrong Leadership Foundation was established in November 2017. Our endeavor is to affect change and cause a paradigm shift that will help Pacific Islanders expand their horizons and achieve their full potential.
Our principal purpose is to create an inspirational, educational, and empowering platform that provides access to networks, resources, and opportunities for Pacific Islanders worldwide.
Our vision is to see Pacific Islanders represented in executive boardrooms, government, technology, medicine, law, philosophy, anthropology, and every other industry we aspire to influence.

The Cultural Immersion Program offers PolyStrong ambassadors a transformative experience by returning them to their islands of heritage.
