The Foundation provides education, health, and community service programmes such as disaster relief, microbusiness promotion and sustainable ecotourism.
[5] The scholarships cover students' tuition fees, educational resources and uniform, food, and boarding (where applicable).
[5][11][12] This year the foundation is continuing the Pawa Givim Meri project in eleven villages along the Kokoda Track.
Via Pawa Givim Meri, small business workshops, cooking classes, and literacy training are run with women's groups in villages, assisting them to earn an income from the trekking industry.
The women are establishing permanent shop fronts from which they can sell their food and products like solar lights to passing trekkers.
Solar lighting has enormous benefits for communities and helps to alleviate poverty, improve health, and enhance educational opportunities for young children.
KTF arranged the delivery of rice and tinned fish to hundreds of villages during the crucial periods when their food gardens were submerged and could not be accessed.
