A Child For All

A Child For All, Inc., (ACFA), established in 2008, provides a home for vulnerable children in Mali, West Africa. ACFA's mission is to provide Mali's vulnerable children a safe and loving environment, which fosters their health, learning, happiness, and success. Children who are living on the streets because they do not have parents who can take care of them are welcomed into the ACFA family and ACFA provides them with safe shelter, nutrition, education, health care, access to sports and the attention necessary to thrive. We have been taking care of twelve vulnerable children since 2010 at the Bamako Children’s Home in the capital of Bamako. In 2020, we opened the doors to our Zorokoro Children's Complex on 5 acres of land in the village of Zorokoro when we added 7 new children ages 3 to 5 years old. These children currently live in the first part of the dormitory which will eventually house 100 children. In the fall, the children will attend school in the first three classrooms recently completed at the Complex. When complete, the Zorokoro Children’s Complex will also have a health care clinic, a sports complex and a library and computer lab, and the school when finished will be for grades pre-k to 9th grade. The Complex will be open for the children and adults in the surrounding villages as well. With the new children, we now have a total of 18 children in both Bamako and Zorokoro, and hope to bring more toddlers to the Complex soon. We want to see these children through an upbringing that will empower them to become self-sufficient, able to support their own families, and thrive as positive contributors to Mali's economic and social development. Your tax-deductible contribution will provide ongoing support for our children's daily activities and empower them to achieve the future they deserve.
