About Friends of Ostomates Worldwide (Canada) (FOWC)

We are on a mission to provide vital ostomy supplies to those in need throughout developing and war-torn countries, restoring the dignity of ostomates and improving their quality of life.


We aspire to create a more inclusive and empowered world for ostomates by bridging healthcare gaps and fostering resilience.

Global Partnerships

Our ostomy supplies get into the hands of those who need it most thanks in large part to our strategic partnerships in three key countries: Ukraine, Iran, and Kenya. Collaborating hand-in-hand with these ostomy associations, we ensure that appropriate supplies are delivered to each location as part of the care each ostomate relies on up.
