Welcome to FOAG
The Farmers Overseas Action Group, FOAG, is an independent charity whose mission is to aid social and economic development in Uganda’s rural communities. FOAG provides support to 12 projects in four key sectors; health, education, economic empowerment and the environment, with the overall goal of alleviating poverty. FOAG concentrates on small scale constructive action for community development through the funding of innovative projects that are often too small for the objectives of larger international charities.
The FOAG management team is predominantly made up of experienced and committed volunteers and consequently has very low administration costs with only 8% of our funding going towards administrative functions compared with a sector average of around 30%. This puts us in the unique position of being able to offer our donors the opportunity for their contributions to go directly to the people they are trying to help.
FOAG is a registered charity number 802676.

FOAG launches it spring appeal.
FOAG decided not to send a 2009 Christmas Appeal in favour of a Spring Appeal in 2010. This year FOAG is rasing funds for operations at Butiru, St farnces and Budaka Cheshire Home. The operations are life changing as they often give children the ability to walk.
