BACKGROUND AND HISTORY
Fullness of Life Mission (FOLM) was established out of a deep Christian calling to serve the most vulnerable and marginalized populations through holistic, integrated, and sustainable interventions. Rooted in faith and compassion, FOLM was founded to respond to persistent challenges facing children and families – poverty, malnutrition, preventable diseases, unsafe water, environmental degradation, and limited access to quality education and protection services.
Since its inception in 2020, FOLM has steadily grown from a grassroots faith initiative into a structured community-based NGO recognized for its integrity, accountability, and ability to operate effectively in hard-to-reach rural and post-crisis settings.
The organization combines Biblical values with evidence-based development approaches, ensuring that spiritual care goes hand-in-hand with practical solutions that restore dignity and resilience.
FOLM works closely with local churches, community leaders, government departments, and humanitarian partners, enabling deep community trust, ownership, and long-term sustainability of interventions.
