About FoC
ABOUT US
Friends of Children (F0C) was founded in 2003 by a group of individuals with a dream to lend a helping hand to society. The underlying objective was to reach out to deserving youth using education as a medium to help them grow as strong individuals with an opportunity for a sustainable livelihood. What an incredible journey it has been...8 years and going strong.
Our core objective is still the same – “Empowering through Education”. FoC sponsors higher education as well as vocational education for meritorious students subsequent to their initial school years. At present we do not accept applications for sponsorship below standard 10.
From 26 students in 2003 we now have around 350 students across the greater Maharashtra region. Our activities have also widened to include a number of complimentary areas in addition to financial support, such as provision of textbooks, trainer camps & skill sessions, mentor & guide networks, Spoken English training sessions etc. We continue to grow and evolve.
There are many ways that you can help –please check the "How Can I help - Important Donor information" link for additional details.
Every child has a DREAM & YOU have the POWER to fulfill it.
An overwhelming 110 students, both from the previous year, aspiring new entrants and newly taken students of the EY foundation attended the meeting.
Mr Nikhil & Srivallabh addressed the students on the focus and determination required from the student to achieve good marks and the importance of IT in today's world. The students came up with many queries regarding the same topic.
Guidelines were then discussed and requirements for payment of fees on Aug .11th at Snehankit. We have also announced to the students that clothes will be distributed on the same day to them.
If any of you are willing to donate clothes, please drop them off between 1.30 and 4.30 pm on Saturdays and Sundays at Snehankit, Annasaheb Sathe school, Kumthekar Road, before Aug 11th.!
On July 28th, we will be distributing fees to our Narayangaon students ( 110 students ).
