Mission

[edit]

Allan Children’s Foundation’s motto, ‘Empowering lives through Education’, reflects its mission to address issues of poverty, healthcare, through improvements in access to and quality of education, with a focus on Uganda’s younger generations.[1] Allan Children Foundation projects focus beyond basic educational services in order to maximise participation in a range of areas and encourage children to explore their own interests and curiosities.[2][4] The organisation's objectives are to provide opportunities for underprivileged and homeless children to fully develop their physical, intellectual and creative potentials;[5] to assist and cooperate with the individuals and organizations working for children's education and welfare;[5] to protect children who are abused and neglected, and to restore their family relationships;[1] and to campaign for public awareness on children's rights.[6]
