Learning from the Past - Building a Better Future
Being You is founded on a business that was built out of loss and determination, generosity and goodwill, and a belief that we all deserve a chance to be our best selves and a willing hand to help us to get there.
It was 1983 when well-respected Wellington businessman Ken Fraser was asked to leave his Managing Director’s office in downtown Wellington and sent home – unemployed.
Confronted by being without a job for the first time in his life and with a young family to raise, Ken and his wife Wendy reached into their core beliefs, did some serious soul searching, and started to journey in an entirely new direction.
Opting to leave the corporate world and all of its trappings behind, they decided instead to establish an organisation that was for the next 30 years or so to assist hundreds of young New Zealanders to realise their potential.
Often from disadvantaged backgrounds, Ken and Wendy saw what could be achieved when people were given the opportunity to challenge their self-beliefs, develop new skills and learn and grow as part of a team.
