f.r.o.d.o. Foundation for the Relief of Disabled Orphans

Welcome to the Home page of F.R.O.D.O. – Foundation for the Relief of Disabled Orphans.

Our mission is:

“To transform the quality of life, provide hope and empower orphans in developing countries who suffer from disability or life threatening illness.”

Uniquely, F.R.O.D.O. focuses on helping disabled children, currently living in institutional environments, often with poor care and little love.

Working with partners, we identify those whose lives would be transformed if they receive treatment for their disability. Often in developing countries, children suffer from disabilities which are regularly treatable in the West. Our goal is to bring these treatments to as many orphaned children as possible, to give hope where currently there is none.

Throughout this site you can read about the many different ways we work. If you would like to join us in our fight for these children, please contact us.

Alexi

On April 21st, we had the deeply saddening news that Alexi, one of our first Frodokids, died suddenly from complications related to cirrhosis of the liver. He was 3 years old. Tragically, he was due for a liver transplant in the coming weeks… Alexi was a wonderful, happy child, and has been an inspiration to all of us to help other children.
