Purple Turtle Foundation is a nonprofit organization. Our mission is to widen access for underprivileged children to high-quality opportunities to learn to read, to help them develop multiple essential skills through powerful, effective materials. Create a world where every child has the opportunity to harness their talents using colourful and engaging books, interactive media and thus build a bright future.

Purple Turtle & friends are characters that bring smiles, giggles and joyful learning experiences to classrooms and homes of preschoolers. At Purple Turtle, our goal is to reach and benefit vulnerable children with the potential of our characters.

Helping kids to educate themselves improves the most crucial aspects of their life—money, health, gender equality, peace and stability. This vision for a brighter tomorrow has fueled the exciting journey of Purple Turtle Foundation.
