Chosen Children Village is a unique concept in the care of disabled children. The village was founded by Maria Angeles (Lita) Peypoch Fullerton in 1989. Her vision focused on a home environment in caring for Physically and Mentally Challenged Children within a family setting.The traditional institutional setting was something that she felt was not beneficial to the growth and development of such special children with demanding needs. The Chosen Children Village concept came about after the Las Piñas facility of Chosen Children Inc. was unable to cope with the volume of children needing a home and a family. Located in the cool, clean air of Silang, the 2.4 hectare parcel of land now houses cottages, chapel, school, administration clinic and physical therapy centers. The central focus is a spacious, multi purpose play area where the children fill the air with laughter and squeals of delight. There is a continuing need to finance this Village so that many more children will be able to thrive in a home environment. The Chosen Children Village and Chosen Children Inc. are both non-profit organizations that rely on donations in the form of child sponsorships or donations for the buildings' construction. Without help from the general public and corporations, CCV and CCI could not sustain this level of care and education. Lita Fullerton's philosophy states that each and every one of these children deserves to be cared for by people who will love them with a mother's instinct. At Chosen Children, this happens, and she wants it to continue. (Continue) CHOSEN CHILDREN VILLAGE FOUNDATION is maintained solely through donations, sponsorships and grants and has a Board of Trustees whose members serve without compensation.
