Welcome to The Pyjama Foundation's Team!
While we operate within a challenging and sometimes heart-wrenching sector, our primary focus is to bring hope and happiness into the lives that truly matter. At the heart of our efforts is the Love of Learning Program.
Our central objective is clear: to elevate the educational and life trajectories of children and young people in foster care.
We achieve this with the help of our amazing volunteer mentors who empower children and youth by honing their literacy and numeracy skills, while simultaneously providing them with essential emotional support.
