The Pyjama Foundation Ltd
Tips for Applicants
As The Pyjama Foundation primarily operates direct service programs, potential applicants should consider if they are a child or young person in out-of-home care who could benefit from their 'Love of Learning Program' or 'Teen Life Skills' and reach out via their contact channels. For those wishing to support their work, they encourage volunteering as a 'Pyjama Angel' mentor or making a donation.
Giving Philosophy
The Pyjama Foundation believes in disrupting the cycle of disadvantage experienced by children and young people in out-of-home care by fostering positive relationships and providing consistent support. Their 'Love of Learning Program' and 'Teen Life Skills' are designed to boost self-confidence, decision-making skills, enthusiasm for learning, and improve interpersonal relationships, social connections, and employability, ultimately reducing educational disadvantage. They are committed to being trauma-informed and evidence-based in their approach, and they acknowledge Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as traditional custodians, working towards a positive future through their Reconciliation Action Plan.
