Achon Uganda Children's Fund

Portland, Oregon, 97229 United States

Mission Statement

The mission of the Achon Uganda Children’s Fund is to improve quality of life in rural Northern Uganda through access to health care and education, improvements to infrastructure, exposure to opportunities in sport, and means of self-sufficiency. AUCF undertakes all projects in partnership with native Ugandans, with the goal of transitioning to a state of self-sustainability and independence from outside assistance.

About This Cause

AUCF was established by Olympic runner Julius Achon in response to the dire situation faced by the residents of his home village in Northern Uganda. Ravaged by civil war, and touched by famine caused by drought, the region's residents are struggling in the face of truly inadequate living conditions, and many children have been left without family. AUCF is committed to helping the community rebuild and set a course toward good health, stability and self-sufficiency.
