Objective of the Fund
The overall objective of the Fund is to mobilise enough funds to support the Cardinal’s projects on health and education, namely :
a) helping with the payment of health insurance premiums for as many poor families as possible to enable them access health care through the national health insurance scheme.
b) providing maternal and child healthcare for women and children especially the underprivileged, poor and outcast in deprived communities; and
c) providing equal educational opportunities, especially, for the marginalized and disadvantaged youth living in rural and remote communities.
