The JJ Metta Memorial Foundation - a registered 501(c) 3  charitable organization- provides comprehensive assistance to children in need. It helps children access opportunities by offering education in basic literacy and hygiene skills. It provides children classes in reading, writing, arithmetic, hygiene, music and other cultural arts so they can translate this broader base of knowledge into a broadened sense of what they can achieve.

The driving principle behind the foundation is a commitment to individual and societal responsibility for providing underprivileged children with hope, food, clothing, counseling and health care.

This foundation is dedicated to the memory of JAYANTH CHARYA who left this earth on March 5, 2003. The purpose of this memorial foundation is to help needy children.
