Villionaires
This is a future vision for the communities we operate in. Our ambition is to see a village(s) that has 100 village millionaires (or farmers), without any poor households. It will take several years, if such a model village could ever be realized. But we have started slowly work with people in Bulyango Village, Kitoba Sub country, Hoima District in believing in themselves and in this dream. To help them believe that anything is possible with hard work and determination!
We want to change the mindset of a village. Many Ugandans imagine mud houses, dusty roads, children with torn clothes, no electricity or even no telephone signals on a mention of village. We see a model village where; every home has a descent toilet, easy access to schools (primary, secondary and tertiary), primary health care, solar-powered street lights, clean water, playing spaces for children and a good network of safe public transport among other key things. We see an entire village with Wi-Fi connection, CCTV cameras.
