Building Tomorrow

A nonprofit organization that empowers young people to support their peers in Uganda by raising funds & awareness for education infrastructure project

BT chapters and supporters provide challenge grants to communities equal to land and construction materials for a new academy while local community members and family and friends of future BT students volunteer 20,000 hours of their time to construct each academy.BT currently works in Uganda, identifying areas with, quite simply, the greatest number of children with the least access to a primary school. In these areas, BT purchases a plot of land and, with the help of the local community, constructs a new primary academy. Committees of residents and local leaders are established to oversee the construction process from start to finish. Upon completion of the academy, the building is leased to the local government to manage day-to-day operations under an agreement with BT.
