Pyjama Foundation
The Pyjama Foundation runs a Love of Learning program that focuses on literacy skills, and fosters a love for literature and reading. It also helps boost a child’s self-esteem and confidence.
Volunteer Pyjama Angels visit the homes of children in care, of all ages, to read stories, play literacy games, do puzzles and provide homework support.
All Pyjama Angels are trained, and hold a blue card.
The Pyjama Foundation is based in Brisbane and has an active group of volunteer Pyjama Angels in:
- Bundaberg
- Cairns
- Gold Coast
- Gladstone
- Hervey Bay
- Ipswich
- Logan
- Mackay
- Maryborough
- Rockhampton
- Sunshine Coast
- Toowoomba
- Townsville.
For more information, call The Pyjama Foundation on (07) 3256 8802 or visit their website.
Additional resources for you to support the child’s literacy and learning may also be available through your foster and kinship carer service.
