With your contributions we are improving the medical care for these children, also helping with their schooling, including books and uniforms,

providing special help with their school work and many skills necessary for a better future. We also helped equip the new arts and craft center and electrify the entire facility. Special contributions and donations have also

been received from FONdC supporters for food, clothing, shoes/sneakers. We also have received pro bono services of doctors, dentists and nurses, attorneys and other professions.
