Since its formation, all Fanos programmes - the Child Sponsorship, the Women Empowerment, the Youth Empowerment, and the Health and Wellbeing Project have had a significant impact on the lives of many, particularly vulnerable children, young people, and women in the community. Particularly, through the Child Sponsorship scheme children from impoverished backgrounds have been given access to education, healthcare, and basic needs such as food and clothing. This has not only improved their quality of life but has also given them a chance to break the cycle of poverty and build a brighter future for themselves.
Fanos has seen many of these children graduating from universities or opening small businesses. Fanos has also empowered women through various initiatives such as skills training, micro-finance programmes, and advocacy for their rights programmes. As a result, women have become self-sufficient, more confident and enabled to make decisions with a positive impact on their lives. Overall, all Fanos programmes have been instrumental in transforming the lives of the most vulnerable members of society and creating better future for all. orphan charity charity for women international charity
