GCV

Liz is throwing herself out of the plane for GCV!

This really is a cause that is close to my heart, after spending 2.5 months in rural Uganda several years ago I have seen the effect that poverty can have but was also encouraged by the positive impact that organizations such as this can have (if they have the right approach).  One of the things that stands out about Grace Children’s Village is there is a real focus on self sufficiency and sustainability (another cause that is close to my heart).

Another great thing about the project is that all the people employed by the project are local Ugandans including co-founder Dave and it is the local people who have a say in how the project is run.  Any other work carried out outside of Uganda is done by volunteers (mostly I think from Dave giving lots of his spare time).  So you can ensure that the money you give will be going towards the cause and not to line other people’s pockets.
