Can you help?

Ms Cosburn is collecting school supplies and gently used books to send them to Uganda. She is donating them to the Watoto Villages(see below for information).

Watoto provides holistic care for over 1700 vulnerable children orphaned by war and AIDS in Uganda, by creating safe and enriching environments for them to flourish in. Watoto's mission is to provide care and education for these boys and girls so they can be empowered to make a positive and lasting impact on the development of their country.

Watoto villages are small communities where the children are brought up in family environments – in homes consisting of eight children and a housemother. Watoto children are educated at schools and are treated in medical centres in the villages. The facilities are built throughout the year by volunteers from all over the world."
