**on public benefit)**|**AIM:**The mission of FOMO is to provide and enhance the health,
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 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 UK and FOMO Mulanje)**
Due to Covid FOMO UK’s ability to raise funds and supple grants to
FOMO Mulanje have been very restrictive, but working together FOMO
UK and FOMO Mulanje have been able to maintain its programmes in
Mulanje.
FOMO UK is run by a small board of trustees whose main work is to raise
funds, provide grants, goods to FOMO Mulanje and raise awareness of
the children's situation.
FOMO Mulanje is run by a small board of trustees and administration
staff who’s main role is to implement and administer the activities of the
individual development programmes in Mulanje.
FOMO UK and FOMO Mulanje 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 Mulanje has grown and now looks after
over 2,500 children through a network of 14 centres covering over 85
villages in Mulanje district of Malawi.| **TAR** **April 2009** 3 FOMO Mulanje is seen as a success by the children, local committees and officers, (DC, TA's, Police, heath workers, social services etc), FOMO Mulanje 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 Mulanje's day to day activities are run by a small number of employees, project officer, accountant, playschool teacher, matron plus and 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. The bridge between FOMO UK and FOMO Mulanje is 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 Mulanje, run a secondary school, 14 playschools, a Clinic and a tailoring school/outlet. We, when funds are available, sponsor further education for the 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 Due to Covid FOMO UK’s ability to raise funds and supple grants to FOMO Mulanje have been very restrictive, but working together FOMO UK and FOMO Mulanje have been able to maintain its programmes in Mulanje.
