SUMMARY:National Pyjama Day
DESCRIPTION:Proudly hosted by The Pyjama Foundation\, National Pyjama Day invites Australians to throw on their favourite PJs\, host a fun-filled event\, and help make a difference for children in foster care. \nEvery dollar raised helps The Pyjama Foundation recruit\, screen\, train\, and support dedicated volunteers who work one-on-one with children in foster care through the Love of Learning Program. \nThrough the Program\, volunteer mentors known as Pyjama Angels spend time each week reading with children\, helping with homework\, building confidence\, and encouraging a love of learning. These positive and consistent relationships help children improve their educational outcomes and give them the support they need to thrive. \nWhen participants register to host an event\, they receive a free host kit filled with posters\, balloons\, stickers\, bunting\, and other fundraising resources to help bring their Pyjama Day to life. \nWhether it is a dress-up donation day at school\, a workplace morning tea\, a pyjama-themed party\, or a community fundraiser\, every event helps provide children in foster care with life-changing learning support and mentorship. \nTo register or find out more\, visit nationalpyjamaday.com.
