WorldSpace Foundation is a publicly supported 501(c)(3) nonprofit tax-exempt organization headquartered in Washington, DC, USA. Our mission is to help improve the lives of disadvantaged persons in developing regions of the world by providing access to education and other information broadcast directly to radios from satellites.

Endowed with 5% capacity on the satellites of the WorldSpace system, WorldSpace Foundation (WSF) works with local and international non-governmental organizations (NGOs), national and intergovernmental agencies, and a variety of community groups to produce and deliver social development and education programs to communities in the developing world that are disadvantaged by poverty, illiteracy, inadequate infrastructure, and geographical isolation. The foundation looks to grants, donations, corporate funding, other foundations, and government sponsored programs as sources of support.
