On 21st September 2015, FOL's country director officially signed the Small Scale Funding Agreement between UNICEF and FOL.

There is one fully functional One Stop (Chikwanekwane) Centre (OSC) in Malawi which is at Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Blantyre but Government, UNICEF and UNFPA are working to renovate or build OSCs in at least all major district hospitals in Malawi. After observing that the model that is being implemented at the Blantyre OSC where FOL is providing trauma counseling, follow ups, support groups, among other things is working well, UNICEF has signed a contract with FOL to replicate the same model in Blantyre with Lilongwe, Zomba and Mzuzu OSCs for a year.

Some of the expected results for this partnership are increased client numbers at OSCs through awareness of the service and increased quality service, a strategy to recruit volunteer lay counselors developed and tested, delivery of trauma counseling at the OSCs for victims of sexual violence, appropriate data collection system in place with associated monthly and other reports.

We are looking forward to working with UNICEF to launch the OSCs in Lilongwe, Mzuzu and Zomba so that we have fully functional OSCs in all three districts in Malawi. Mzuzu and Zomba have OSC buildings but Lilongwe OSC at Kamuzu Central Hospital is under construction.

We hope you will all help us with additional resources. You can donate toys, crayons and children's coloring books. You can also donate towards comfort pack items like underwear, soap, tooth paste, tooth brushes and more. We still need all the help you can provide. We thank UNICEF for believing in us and entrusting us with this task. Help us bring comfort to victims of rape, defilement and sexual assault.
