🌺 Leadership & Legacy
Fahefa holds a noble history of stewardship and service under the title of Lord Ve‘ehala, whose family has guided the village for generations. The Fahefa Foundation continues to honor that heritage by supporting programs that strengthen community leadership, uphold traditional values, and expand opportunity for the people of Fahefa.
While the noble title remains within the Ve‘ehala line, the heart of the Foundation’s mission is carried by the extended family — those who have long served the community with humility, faith, and devotion to the land. Through collaboration with the youth, elders, and future leaders such as Siulolovao Chloe Vi, Viliami Leilua Vi, Kaimani Vulangi Charles Vi, Mele Simoa Va'asinoa Vi, Isileli Tupou Sunia Akaveka Vi, Anapesi Iloa-he-lotu Vi (aka Anna Imrie) and Tevita Ula Afuha'amango Vi (aka William DeBruce) the Foundation works to preserve the spirit of unity that defines Fahefa.
Our work reflects the Tongan principle of fe‘ofa‘aki — mutual love and respect — reminding us that true leadership is measured not by position, but by service to others.
“The strength of Fahefa lies in the hands that serve, not only the titles that lead.”
