Other Activities

Health Care

Many of the orphans and children who run to the streets are in their adolescence. Given the dire circumstances in which they live, they are exposed to sexual abuse and are in need of reproductive health services. All children are taught about basic hygiene, sex education, drug abuse, and HIV prevention. DFA-Uganda works with people and organizations that provide counseling services to them. Mosquito nets are provided to residents to prevent malaria infections. Bathing facilities are made available for children staying at the organization. All children are taught proper maintenance and use of pit latrines, and the importance of boiling water for drinking.

Networking

Over the years DFA-Uganda has fostered relationships with different agencies, both at district, national and international levels with whom it collaborates to improve the welfare of unprivileged children and their families. Some of these agencies include; Program for Labor Action, District Government departments, The AIDS Support Organization (TASO), NGO Forum, Police Family and Child Protection Unit. Delight Foundation Africa is hoping to increase its relationship with both Local and International agencies with similar objectives.

COUNSELING

Counseling is a core activity of the project. The children are provided with psycho-social care and support to help them cope and survive within their environment. Individual, Group, peer and Family counseling are carried out on a regular basis.

Games and Sports

The Foundation encourages children to participate in different sports and games in order to develop their talents, team spirit, improve their self-image and for recreation purposes. Annual games are played within the projects to create strong relationships among all the children of the foundation.
