The Montessori Children's Foundation has been established to Champion the Cause of all Children and to:

	Uphold the rights of the child in society and make known the child’s importance for the progress of civilisation

	Promote the Montessori approach as a means to achieving peace and social reform

	Raise funds and allocate them to projects that are designed to alleviate hardship faced by children and provide opportunities for children to develop to their full potential.

The Foundation will help us to bring hope to those who have been unable to break a cycle of dependence and who live in poverty in Australia, through no fault of their own – because they are children.

The Foundation is inspired by Dr. Maria Montessori’s vision that:

"We must help the child to act for himself, will for himself, think for himself; this is the art of those who aspire to serve the spirit."

"The child is the spiritual builder of mankind, and obstacles to his free development are the stones in the wall by which the soul of man has become imprisoned."

The goals of the Foundation will be achieved by supporting projects in the following areas:

	Indigenous and Remote Communities	NEW RESOURCE Articles, Papers and Research about Montessori and Indigenous Communities

	Scholarships and Tuition Assistance

	Assistance to Infancy and Parent Education

	Montessori Institute and Research Centre

	Public Awareness and Advocacy

	Montessori Adolescent Programmes
