What is FOMOE?

We are a registered charity, based in the UK, which raises funds to advance the education, relieve poverty and sickness and enhance the preservation and protection of good health of children in Malawi who are orphaned, in particular but not exclusively by helping to fund a school known as  ‘Mangochi Orphans Education and Training’ (MOET)

Why was FOMOE set up?

Since its start 10 years ago MOET School has been mainly reliant on just a few generous benefactors.

In addition to this there have been 4 people who have been raising funds in their own communities in the UK independently – all connected to the school in their own way.  Early in 2010 they came together to form a charity.

FOMOE was set up to bring those efforts together in a co-ordinated way and to help put the school on a more secure financial footing by widening the donor base.

This should enable MOET School to not only carry on doing its good work but also to develop new initiatives to enhance the lives and futures of its pupils and the communities they live in.

What are FOMOE’s objectives?

To help provide the following to orphans and vulnerable children in the Mangochi district of Malawi:

1. Elementary education for the children
2. Training to the older children and their communities in vocational skills, self-sufficiency in fruit and vegetable production and in natural medicine.
