A fountain of life and development 

MISSION

 

To be a role model community based organization aimed at promoting awareness on health, social and economic problems caused by drug abuse in the community.

BACKGROUND

 The Living Fountain of Grace (LIFOG) is a community based organization (CBO) that was formed with a view to address the problem of drug abuse and it is now committed to the campaign against the taking of the various types of drugs whether negative or hard which have affected the society so much due to misuse.

This is a non-political, non-profit making and non- partisan organization based at Utange-Mombasa District and registered with the Kenya Government Registration n°: SS/MSA/CD/SH/15/06/09/458.

 The group was established in October 2004 as a membership organization with members volunteering their time and resources through three working programmes namely: 

  • Anti drug abuse initiative, orphans and widows initiative and LIFOG development programme.

 LIFOG believes that too much use of dangerous drugs is a public menace which hinders the development of any nation as it involves those who still have the potential, capacity and strength to spear-head the nation to prosperity. Thus concerted efforts are required to reduce if not eradicating completely this menace.
