Goals

Recognizing that the challenges facing our children are increasingly more complex and urgent, CHOCU focuses its work on ambitious goals.

Goals

CHOCU focuses its work on ambitious goals.

01

Shoe
Drive

We want to supply Shoes for Barefoot Children, through donations from web site, business donations, sponsors, and parents who can afford to help.

02

Acess
Needs

Children living with disabilities need assessments for what is needed to help them attend school.  We will find an assessment tool as well as a list of possible donors for technology and expertise.

03

Home
Placement

Look for grants and donations to help in research and development of programs to help place orphaned children in homes locally and world-wide. Become familiar with Ugandan laws regarding adoptions international and work to change them if necessary.

04

Child
Labor

Look for help in changing labor laws regarding the number of hours children can work per day and per week, and what age is legal for children to begin work outside of the home.  Insist that children who have got to work do not work under bad conditions and are paid equitably for their labor

05

Shoe
Fundraiser

Fundraisers for startup expenses.  Children who are from a richer area can be fundraisers for children in outlying areas.  Plan a presentation for school officials, and local businesses to raise money for your use in getting to where you can be successful in getting shoes for children who need them, also ask them to promote a donation box for shoes for children.  After getting permission from the schools have an assembly and present a fund-raising opportunity for the children to get donations from their relatives and friends and to bring old shoes of theirs that are still in good condition to pass on to the children.  Do this in several schools with all board officers able to be presenters and answer questions about CHOCU.

06

Peer
Mentor

Train older children to help younger children with understanding of language, help them with school curriculum and answer questions, watch for children with disabilities and befriend and assist them to get the things they need in class, and train them to watch for and help stop bullying. Teach them People First Language

07

Essential
Aid

Find food aid and clothing and medical referrals for children living in poverty.
