OUR HISTORY
Friends Community Foundation And Care Home is centered in Eastern Uganda ( Busoga region) in a deep village called WABULENGA VILLAGE.
This initiative was founded by Waiswa Moses Elijah and his few friends.
They know what it means to lose your parents,family and live on the streets, spending each day searching for something to eat, and a place to lay your head. ( Because we grew up parentless too.)

We have tried to take these children off the streets and care for them, providing food, clothing, shelter, and education with support through donations.

With the increased numbers of Ugandan orphans sleeping on an empty stomach, poor children whose parents canβ€˜t afford school fees, or even the very basic needs, every donation, no matter how small, makes a difference.

OUR MISSION STATEMENT
At the Friends Community Foundation And Care Home, we believe that each child deserves a chance for a better future and we can do this through uplifting local communities.

We are committed to helping orphaned , abandoned and needy children in different communities, by giving food, clothing and an opportunity to learn.
We try to do whatever it takes for the children everyday, and in times of crisis, giving hope to the hopeless, transforming their lives...and the future we share.
THE KEY INITIATIVE
We are looking forward to building a home for all children and technical skills empowerment institution with facilities like ICT, building, mechanics, tailoring, arts, crafts and design, for ORPHANS ,ABANDONED CHILDREN, GIRL CHILDREN, YOUTHS AND WOMEN in our communities and the country at large.
