The Faith Association for the Rehabilitation of Street Children
and Orphans (FARSO)
was established through the instrumentality of a
professional social worker and a nurse residing in Maryland, Baltimore, USA.
The founders were moved by the plight of children who are orphans,
underprivileged and marginalized in society as well as women who are living in
poverty-stricken conditions and in deprived rural communities.
It has a department or section which offers assistance to the
deprived, old aged and women for their self-actualization and economic
sufficiency. This, it is hoped, will enable such people to make meaningful
contributions to the development of their communities.
Also, the organization does not leave the environment in isolation
as it forms an integral part of human kind's social and economic alleviation.
Hence, we have a group of professional young environmental workers and
affiliated institutions working on climate change issues, biodiversity
conservation, water management and integrity, and desertification mitigation
and adaptation policies and measures.
To rehabilitate orphans, needy children, youth, women and other sections of persons in an environment conducive, safe and healthy above all standards without discrimination.
