Mission statement and vision
Stichting Afriana Foundation is in 2011 in the Netherlands, as a Christian non-profit organization with the main goal of reducing child mortality in Africa. Through various projects, the Afriana Foundation focuses on children and families living below the poverty line. The Foundation is also attempting to improve the living conditions of these communities by fighting against poverty, diseases, neglect, and abuse.

Children without home
By neglect / abuse or the death of their parents, children are cared for in the home Africare. . The children are placed in the Afriana house by the Lilongwe district social welfare. The vast majority of these children were found abandoned in or near the city of Lilongwe and therefore cannot return to their biological families..
During the stay, a possibility of domestic adoption is sought through the Lilongwe district social welfare. If this possibility is excluded , the child will remain in the Afriana home until another solution is found, such as international adoption. where they are provided with basic needs, receive love and also receive education and, if necessary, therapy so that they are able to build an independent future.

The Afriana Foundation tries to be self-sufficient as much as possible, in order to reduce the expenses. Food is cultivated as much as possible and there is a strong coorperation with local people.

We provide employment by hiring local people. We have average 9 childcare workers, 2 cleaners / what, 2 gardeners / security guards and 1 driver employed. They largely run the project under the supervision of Nicole van Elteren.

Objectives
The Afriana Foundation aims to reduce child mortality in Malawi, South. Malawi is the poorest country in the world. Due to lack of food among others, education and good medical care, many children die annually. The Afriana Foundation supports the children who are placed in the Afriana house by the Lilongwe district social welfare.

Finance expenditures:

• Salaries
• Rent for the Afriana house
• Groceries
• Medical costs for the children in the Afriana house
• Utility facilities
• School fees
• Car and gasoline
• Office equipment

Future projects
In the coming years, the Afriana Foundation hopes to grow and purchase its own piece of land for the construction of a new Afriana house.
The current house that is rented cannot meet the demand of the Lilongwe district social welfare. The number of children who are abandoned is extremely high and there is therefore a demand for multiple shelters in acute emergency situations.
