Adopt a Village development network

Adopt a village is a project that was set up to contribute towards the improvement of health service provision in Uganda, through activities like facilitating pregnant women from slums who can't afford to have a hospital birth. We buy these women mama kits which contain items needed for a hospital birth, 2 baby sheets, 2 baby suits, sanitary birth pads, a baby basin and we pay their hospital bill. We spend 40$ on each mother. 

This Project also empowers communities and vulnerable groups to take charge of their basic health care needs through a preventive model of health promotion. We organize workshops that give these women information about good hygiene, immunization, child nutrition and birth control methods.

We also empower these women to improve on their basic living standards through engagement in gainful income generating activities. We carry out training programs to introduce these women to better farming methods, food preservation, income generating activities like tailoring, bakery, carpentry and small business management.
