Back to school!
Its always a busy time when the school term opens. This one was not just busy but exciting as well.
We have had 3 new children getting sponsors recently, and one of the sponsors is Ugandan!
We thank all our sponsors, coordinators and friends for making 2015 a year of expansion for us. We are steadily growing.
We caught up with some of the children putting on their beautiful sports uniform ( an extra set of uniform for sports activities) and we bring you the images...

CHRISTMAS 2015
We had a special Christmas season with our children here at FALCCO.
Many of the rural children in this community do not have much that comes their way that is special on Christmas days. It is mainly some extra meat for those that can afford it and not much celebration as families.
Due to that, we try to make Christmas special in simple but powerful ways for the children in our program.
We tell them to do some preparations in singing and we have a special time with them that morning. Its a time when they get to interact with other children who are not in the program.
This last Christmas, we had all the children over; both the sponsored and the ones yet to get sponsors.
We had a time of learning, interaction, singing and a shared snack lunch before they went home to join their families for the main meal of the day.
In this new year 2016, our focus is expansion. We thank God for the successes of 2015; for the new sponsors, the new children that we have reached out to, the families that have got income generating projects through our support etc. We are very grateful to our sponsors and friends who have faithfully supported us financially, morally and materially.
We believe that with a wider partnership base we shall reach more children this year. Our main goals for 2016 include:
1 - Reaching the target of having 60 sponsored children by the end of the year.
2 - Getting atleast two more part time volunteers that can volunteer their time and skills to our work.
3 - Starting an income generating project to generate local revenue to support our budget.
4 - Support 5 more families to start small scale family businesses in addition to our goat distribution program.
We continue to appeal to all friends and well wishers to join us in whatever small way you can to make a difference in the lives of our children and see total transformation in our communities. You may...
1 - Tell someone about Fathers Love and let them visit this site for themselves.
2 - Sponsor a child for 30 Usd per month and give them a brighter future (see sponsorship page)
3 - Come on a short term volunteer trip and offer your expertise and time to serve with us (we can always discuss details and give you directions)
4 - Connect us to other funding agencies that you know that could be of help.
As we try to think how we can improve the education standards in our community, we are increasingly realizing it may be necessary to start our own primary school so as to set the standards we dream of for the children. This is part of our 5-year dream as God guides and provides.

CHRISTMAS STORY TIME
We took time to teach the children the Christmas story using beautiful illustrated books donated by Child Evangelism Ministries International. We explained to them the relevance of that day to their lives.

CENTRE DAY STORIES
Centre day is the day that we meet with the children for various activities as we monitor their overall development. Last weekend we held a centre day and we bring you the stories and images from our fun filled moments.
As some of you know, we recently registered new children as we seek to increase our outreach and impact in the community. This was the first time that the new children were interacting with the older ones in the project and it was such fun and interesting. The joy of making new friends could be seen all over their faces.
In these centre days we have interactive learning and counselling sessions, have fun and play activities and share a snack especially when we keep the children for two hours or more.
These days give us opportunity to get updated about the welfare of the children and their families, we get an opportunity to know any issues in their lives that need our attention and we intervene.
Our target is to have 50 sponsored children by the end of this year. Right now, only 21 are sponsored. Please let us know if you or a friend can take up a child for sponsorship. It takes 30 Usd per month to be a sponsor. That support helps us to provide fees, uniform and school lunch to your sponsored child. It also includes a medical contribution to the child in case of sickness plus facilitating activities like the ones below for the physical, social, cognitive and spiritual development of the child. You may contact us at falccokisoro@hotmail.com for more details.
And now the games.....
