HEALTHY COMMUNITIES
BABIES AND MOTHERS ALIVE PROGRAM (BAMA)
Partnering with the Ugandan Ministry of Health we are training health providers at the 48 Health Centers and Hospitals that serve the 580,000 people of the Rakai and Kyotera Districts.
MY PADS Program
My Pads is a comprehensive sexual and reproductive health program for adolescents that introduces life skills, promotes the rights of girls and women, and links young people to adolescent-friendly health services.
IMPROVING EDUCATION
Library project: Building a culture of reading and literacy
While many schools in Uganda have a library, most are poorly managed and under-utilized. We have developed the LEAD-ORGANIZE-INTEGRATE training program to build the capacity of school libraries.
School program: BUILDING BETTER SCHOOLS
Brick by Brick works with rural communities to completely re-build crumbling primary schools. Within two years a renovated school is built with sufficient classrooms, a library, access to clean water, sanitation facilities and quality teacher housing.
SOCIAL ENTERPRISE
Social enterprise and the triple bottom line:BRICK BY BRICK CONSTRUCTION Company
Confronted with the poor quality of locally-based construction services, we created a company that utilizes, Interlocking Stabilized Soil Bricks, an environmentally sustainable technology. We have completed over 300 projects throughout Uganda, providing clean water for over 200,000 people.
