Mission and Program Overview

Mission

Brick by brick supports partnerships between school communities in the u.s. And uganda. Our american students raise funds to support their sister school while learning about life in uganda and the impact that their work has on improving the quality of education for their ugandan partners. We believe that by expanding our students experience of community to include global partnerships such as these, we can make an important contribution towards improving the quality of education for our ugandan children while deepening our american students understanding of the world, it's different cultures and the important issues we face. In addition, brick by brick works to encourage sustainable economic development through its social-entreprenurial project, brick by brick construction, which uses environmentally sustainable technology while employing local masons. The profits of this venture are used to fund our community-based programs.
