Challenges

AFSCO faces challenges of supporting children and it is even worse with the inflation hitting Uganda today, the children are often lacking what to feed on, education, clothes, beddings, shelter and medical care. 

These children are abandoned because their parents /guardians cannot afford the basic needs, therefore run away from responsibilities. Other children are born orphans for instance a child is born and a mother dies, then when the father marries other women, they are subjected to domestic violence and torture. Other children are abandoned by their parents with no one to help. Such Children end up on street on absolutely nothing. The country has not done much for such children; it's only the organizations that are trying to protect them and provide basic needs in an institutionalized setting. 

Apart from those children who need a conducive environment for them to play and enjoy all their rights like their counter parts. AFSCO has the compassion to help such disadvantaged children but as a voluntary initiative we are limited with resources.

 Our plight is to reach out to many children but we can't do this in isolation of external support.
