Our offices are located Opposite Kikokwa Health center 3, kaberebere T/C Isingiro District. FAOC was founded as a result of the need to scale up interventions for effective and quality care and protection of orphans and other vulnerable children especially young girls. The organization carries out development activities geared towards uplifting the livelihoods of orphans, other vulnerable children, caregivers, Widows and their households.
Foundation for AIDS Orphaned children was formed to improve the welfare of widows and Orphans through sustainable livelihood projects carried out by women and children affected by HIV/AIDS and their families (especially child headed families) but more especially the girl child who is affected or infected after they have been married off at an early age then infected with HIV/AIDS and their husbands die hence becoming helpless widows.
