Welcome!
Thank you for becoming a fan of Potter's Village on Facebook. It is fantastic to see you here!
I'd like to ask you to please donate £1, or as much as you would like, to this amazing project in Uganda. Every penny raised here goes straight to the Village. Let us know where in the world you are from, and how you heard about the Village. It helps us to raise awareness and help the Village.
The target is £5000 as soon as possible - aid is needed urgently.
Kisoro is a very poor area of south west Uganda, and both AIDS and wars have exacted a great toll on the society. Despite the practice of extended families caring for needy relatives there are still many young children with no form of care. This project will reach out to those most in need.
365 days a year the Village cares for:
The Potter's Village aims to provide care and support for vulnerable children regardless of their race or creed. Care of each child is holistic and tending to all their needs. The Village aims to develop and maintain a family environment which is healthy and secure, giving needy children the optimum opportunity to thrive, develop and discover their full potential.
Support includes:
- Remedial nutrition
- Health and psychological care
- Education
- Family support
- Spiritual and social care
Parents, guardians and family members will be given support and training to enable them to provide for the children in their care; children will be placed with foster parents or rehabilitated with their families where possible.
The Village aims to be self-sufficient in basic needs, with its own cows, vegetable garden and trees for firewood.

THANK YOU!
