Hark Angel Foundation Ltd

Hark Angel Foundation Ltd is an Australian registered charity dedicated to transforming the lives of children in developing countries through education. Since its inception, the foundation has successfully built 11 schools, providing over 3,000 children with access to education that can change their futures. The organisation focuses on communities often overlooked, aiming to empower children and their families by creating sustainable educational opportunities.

Mission and Vision

The mission of Hark Angel Foundation Ltd is to collaborate with impoverished communities to build schools, thereby enabling children to receive an education and break the cycle of poverty. The foundation’s vision is to construct 100 schools in forgotten parts of the world, with a current focus on building the first 30 schools in Myanmar. This vision addresses the critical issue that one in every six children globally is still involved in child labour, and education is seen as the key to changing this reality.

Main Objectives

• Identify communities that are committed to their children’s education and in need of schools.
• Plan and collaborate closely with local communities to ensure the schools meet their specific needs.
• Ensure 100% of donations go directly to school building projects, with all personal expenses covered privately by the team.
• Require community ownership through contributions of money, labour, or materials to foster sustainability.
• Obtain government approvals to secure ongoing support such as government-funded teachers.
• Empower local professionals by employing local builders and engineers for construction.
• Provide ongoing support and monitoring after school completion to ensure continued success.

Benefiting Groups

The primary beneficiaries are children in impoverished and remote communities who otherwise lack access to basic education. These children, often living in difficult circumstances, gain the opportunity to learn literacy and numeracy skills essential for their future. The local communities also benefit by gaining ownership of the schools and the empowerment that comes with sustainable development.

Types of Services and Activities

• Engaging with community members to plan and tailor educational facilities to their needs.
• Securing government approvals to ensure schools are staffed and supported long-term.
