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.

Vasile

He came to the UK in 2006 for an operation to enable him to walk, is growing up fast. He still has problems with his hands but he is now feeding himself with special cutlery and his clothes have been adapted so he can dress himself. It’s important to give him as much independence as possible because he will be going to Kindergarden in September!
