Our aim is always to provide the best care that we can, both from a nutritional and a medical point of view. In order to do this, every child has regular medical supervision, and all our children are fully vaccinated.
In partnership with local health facilities, we are able to provide immediate essential medical care to all the children we support.
We are also working closely with the local District Health Authority, seeking to reduce high maternal mortality and other preventable health-related problems in Kyenjojo District, although this was severely hampered by COVID and its subsequent restrictions. We are now happy to report things are back to normal.
We help our children to grow up healthy and happy. Alongside medical care, we ensure they have a balanced diet suitable for each child.
Most of our foodstuffs are home grown, either from our farm land or locally from our own kitchen gardens. Mothers and children love to be responsible for growing their own produce. We also have our own cattle who provide milk for the older babies.
We are so thankful to our supporters around the world who provide toys, books and clothing for our children.
From an early age we read to our children and encourage them to play and learn about the world around them. As a Christian organisation, FOP is committed to teaching our children about the Christian faith from infancy. We also pray with and for our children and encourage them to develop a living faith for themselves.
Daily prayers, Bible stories and regular Sunday services for all our children are an integral part of their lives. All our senior staff have trusted the Lord Jesus personally and it is their joy to share their faith with the children under their care.
