How we do it—The Strategy |

Business & Operation Strategy
The strategy established to accomplish the vision and mission of O.F.O.C. is a two part business strategy integrated into each Orphan Community built in a host country.
The two major parts of each community are Funding Activities and Childcare Activities. |
|
This combination of “for-profit” and “non-profit” makes it possible to care for the children without having to continually ask for more donations to keep the organization going. |
|
Benefits of the “economic engine” businesses include: · jobs for the adults of the community (and surrounding area) · some of the food needed by the community residents · job skills training for the young people of the community (and surrounding area) · income needed to cover each company’s own operating expenses · funds to pay the operating expenses of the community · funds to pay the family and childcare expenses · income for O.F.O.C. for providing the ongoing support and monitoring for the community · funds needed to repay the investment which enabled the company to be built Each business selected for inclusion in a community will be an independent profit center. If a business fails to generate sufficient income to at least break even, it will be excluded. Other Businesses/Joint Ventures – also considered depending on the location and market are: construction services; furniture building; motorcycle sales and repair; wheelchair rebuilding and repair; clinic; and more.
