Friends of Mulanje Orphans (FOMO) is a community based orphan care programme supporting over 5500 children through a network of 13 centres in Mulanje district of Malawi.FOMO covers all aspects of the children’s welfare including health through our outreach clinic, formal and informal education, food production and food security The programme also covers pre-school, out of school activities and further learning through our play schools, computer, driving and tailoring schools. The programme also covers the provision of school materials, personal items (Soap, clothes, blankets, mosquito nets) and community based bore holes.

The programme is run by a very small staff with over 150 local volunteers; our funds are raised by a small but resourceful volunteer committee in the UK. FOMO provides direct aid and reaches out to many thousands of orphaned and vulnerable children, but we do need a regular source of funding and your personal donations are both valued and appreciated.

Helping does make the difference

FOMO Caring established June 2000 is a registered charity in both the UK & Malawi
