Our Mission
African Child Foundation is an independent, indigenous, non-political, non governmental organization with a primary mission to provide education to poor disadvantaged and neglected orphans whose parents have died of HIV/AIDSand to help their families to overcome poverty and hopelessness in through helping them initiate sustainable income generating projects.
"Uganda has an estimated 1.7 million orphans, the highest number in the world, and 25 percent of all households look after at least one child orphaned by either HIV/AIDS or war, according to a new study by the Ministry of Gender and Labour and Social Development, cited by the nongovernmental organization World Vision An analysis of the situation of orphans in Uganda within the new study suggests that the living conditions of orphans below 18 years of age will make them a "lost generation", without caretakers to help provide their immediate needs for nutrition, health care, clothing, shelter and other child rights, according to World Vision.- 22 Feb 2002 (IRIN)
African Child Foundation therefore seeks to provide a better life now and a constructive future for these children
