The Pyjama Foundation is a non-profit organization based in Albion, Queensland, founded in 2004 to address low literacy and numeracy outcomes among children in foster care. It operates the Love Of Learning Program, screening, training, and recruiting volunteers to serve as Pyjama Angels who spend weekly time with a child in care on learning-based activities. These activities include reading aloud, educational games, and homework support, with the aim of improving educational outcomes, life skills, and confidence for the children. Its work targets children in foster care and the families who support them, seeking to reduce the likelihood that these children will fall behind academically. As part of a broader effort within the Australian education and child-welfare sector, The Pyjama Foundation collaborates with external partners, including a 2023 partnership with Cairns Regional Council to enhance cyclone awareness among foster families. The organization remains anchored in Albion, Queensland, while operating through a network of volunteers and community partnerships to advance its mission.
