Friends of Children in Gomba FCG

Unverified non-profit organisation

We are a nonprofit community based organization working with disadvantaged children in Gomba district of Uganda. We provide them with love, hope, basic education, scholastic materials, self-reliance skills, clothes and food.
My name is Samuel and wife Lucy are the co-founders of Friends of Children in Gomba FCG an organization dedicated to help and support orphans, disadvantaged and less privileged children in Gomba district attain the required education. We are both teachers by profession and work full time with children.
In Gomba district of Uganda, many children are exposed to exponential poverty which has led many children not to go to school despite free education for all children in Uganda. Those who manage to attend school find themselves dropping out due to lack of things you may call small like exercise books, pens, pencils, school uniform, and something to eat at school. These poor parents cannot provide those small scholastic materials to their children not to mention the orphans who are staying with grandparents. That’s why these children are forced to leave school and start working at a very tender age looking for what to eat.
That’s how FCG comes in to help these less privileged children by providing those small things that can keep them in school and they become better citizens of tomorrow.
Organization Vision: To support that disadvantaged child in Gomba district become a better and responsible citizen tomorrow.
Mission: To help the less privileged children in Gomba district with these small items that can make them achieve their goals in life.
