THE HOPE FOUNDATION is a non-profit charity based in Kolkata, India. They help children living in poverty on the streets by giving them homes, education, food & healthcare.
Founded by Maureen Forrest in 1999 the charity have grown in this time to now run numerous projects including a 52 bed hospital, a creche for market sellers to drop their children so they are not roaming the streets, 8 protection homes for boys and girls, an effective education program and life & training skills to help young people into the working world and give them a passport out of poverty.
Free Spirit are reaching out to help by donating 3 months worth of educational materials for every t-shirt sold - this will enable more children to go to school and to have access to the gift of education that so many of us take for granted.
