The 40K Foundation Australia takes on joint venture projects with developing communities to alleviate extreme poverty.

Our maiden project is the building of a bridging school to benefit the families of exploited quarry workers in the rural slums around Bangalore. With their families unable to afford to send them to school, the children miss out on crucial stimulation and education during their key developmental years. The bridging school will therefore provide remedial education for up to 150 children at a time, to bring them up to speed before we financially support them through local mainstream schooling. This otherwise unavailable access to education will make a massive difference to these children’s lives and afford them the opportunities, which were not available to their parents, to work their way out of poverty.
