education, shelter, and meet the basic human needs of all orphaned and
vulnerable children of Mulanje.
**OBJECTIVES:**
To raise the standards of, and provide continuity of care and education to
all Mulanje's orphaned children.
To integrate the orphaned children in the local community by fostering or
adoption.
To raise awareness about issues related to FOMO's activities.
To enable FOMO Mulanje, to be self-funding through business ventures.
To involve the local and greater community in FOMO's activities.| |---|---| ||**Friends of Mulanje Orphans (FOMO):**FOMO was established in 2000
to aid Orphans in Mulanje, a district of Malawi, Africa. The seeds of the
idea for the formation of FOMO stemmed from the many harrowing
stories relayed back to Mary Woodworth from her friends and relatives
still living in her home village in Mulanje. During a visit early in 2000,
Mary and Keith were able to see and hear of the desperate plight of many
of the local Children.
Determined to make the idea of FOMO a reality, Mary contacted relatives
and friends who over the years had been helping many orphaned children.
From this small beginning FOMO became a reality and aims to provide
and enhance the health, education, food security, meet the basic human
needs and develop the potential of all the needy and orphaned children of
Mulanje.
The sad reality is that there are too many children in need of help and too
few local families that can afford to help. Though there are many high
profile agencies within Malawi they seem unable to address the
immediate, local, one to one help that FOMO is committed to provide.
From small beginnings FOMO has grown and now looks after over 3,500
children through a network of 14 centres covering over 85 villages in
Mulanje district of Malawi.
FOMO is seen as a success by the children, local committees and officers,
(DC, TA's, Police, heath workers, social services etc), FOMO works by
assisting and working with the communities using the traditional values
and structures that have served the population in what can only be
describes as better time.
FOMO in the UK is run by a small board of trustees whose main work is
to raise funds and awareness of the children's situation. Additionally the
FOMO UK is responsible for controlling these funds, identifying and
facilitating the needs of FOMO Mulanje.
FOMO Mulanje's day to day activities are run by a small number of
employees, project officer, accountant, playschool teacher, matron plus
round 200 local volunteers, that help out with the general day to day
functions, cooking, sport, gardening club, bees, chickens, choir etc. Each
of the 14 centres has a locally elected volunteer committee who are
responsible for the day to day running of their centre and they are also
responsible for identifying and assessing children in need.| **TAR** **April 2009** 3 The bridge between FOMO UK and FOMO Mulanje is mainly through our founder Mary, who is in a special position in that she understands Malawi, speaks the language, has a clear view of the injustices and knows how to motivate the local population, and generally is an inspiration and example to us all. With an eye on the future FOMO, run a secondary school, 14 playschools, a Clinic, a driving school, a computer school and a tailoring school/outlet. We, when funds are available, sponsor further education for the volunteers and children. ## **Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)** You **may choose** to include further statements, where relevant, about: - policy on grantmaking; - policy programme related investment; - contribution made by volunteers. **TAR** **April 2009** 4 Section D Achievements and performance ## **Summary of the Main Achievements of the charity during the year** All things have been affected to some degree by Covid and the outlook is unknown. - Identification of over 3,500 children - Maintained and ran 14 FOMO Centres - Maintained the children feeding programme, to 3.500 children - Maintained Health Care to the children most in need - Operating a day Clinic and Outreach programme - Operating a HIV treatment centre. - Assisted patients at the district hospital - 150 Volunteers and support workers - Ran a secondary school 500 + students, ( This was closed due to covid for 4 months, but is now open under covid rules - Maintained our links with Intercare (Medicine) - Maintained our links with KitAid (Sports Kit) - Ran Activities Songs, Drama, Excursions, Dance, Stories, Sport, Reading Classes - Ran and Maintained a Maize mill facility - Ran the driving school - Provided personal toiletries, shoes, clothes, sport ware and equipment to the children. - Distributed goods from the container to the centres and children - Funding 1 students at medical college - Provided school uniforms, text books, shoes and educational materials - Support to all the FOMO registered Primary School Children - Maintenance and Repair of Buildings - Ran and Maintained 14 Play Schools, (2 suspended due to funding) - Ran and Maintained the tailoring school - Ran and Maintained small basic recording studio - Supported community football and netball.
