®we are

Greetings to you from all of us at Building Tomorrow! We’re excited to send along our second update of 2010, highlighted by the official grand opening of the BT Academy of Gita supported by the University of Virginia. The site, BT’s fifth in Uganda, has enjoyed great success in its first few months of operations and continues to teach us as an organization how best to leverage the assets of colleges and universities throughout the US for the benefit of the future students we aim to serve throughout sub-Saharan Africa.

We’re excited about ending this year on a very high note with our network of campus chapters gearing up for some big events and construction ongoing at four sites in Uganda. Read on for more from our end and all the best as the holiday season approaches! »

Where do you see yourself in 5 years? Living somewhere in Africa.

Why did you first get involved with BT? I have always been internationally-focused in my extracurriculars, but BT seemed a bit different than other student organizations on campus. We weren’t raising money to send off to a relatively detached parent organization. As we hit fundraising goals then received updates on construction, it felt like a very tangible connection from students to students that I was glad I was a part of.

How has your past involvement with BT affected your professional career? Over the years I was with BT, I was part of many unique experiences I would have otherwise missed out on--from late night publicity chalking to early morning setups for Bike to Uganda. And, unbeknownst to me at the time, many of them make for great experiences to talk about in job interviews.

What’s your most memorable moment from your participation in the BT chapter? Many people said it could not be done, but BT @ UVA pulled off a crab soccer tournament of 18-26 year olds. For those who don’t know, crab soccer involves the rules of soccer, while constantly doing the crab walk. Reminiscent of lower school gym classes, we hosted a day-long tournament that was nothing short of hilarious. Students battled TAs, everyone battled mud. It was a great day and a great way to get the word out about BT.

Any advice to share with current BT chapter members? Be loud. Build schools!

BT’s 1st Annual Chip-In Golf Tournament: A Swinging Good Time

This August, BT’s Social Investment Council hosted the first annual BT Chip-In. The event was a huge success with more than 20 teams

participating and more than $7,500 raised to support BT. Team Hole Boys finished atop the standings with an impressive score of 56.

Special thanks to PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, all of our hole sponsors, the BT Social Investment Council and our corps of incredible volunteers!

Ball State University recently became home to the sixth chapter of BT in Indiana. Here’s an excerpt from Kenzie Grob on why she decided to work with BT:

“Last Spring, I was in a communications course that required each student to f nd a social problem and create a project that could be implemented. I decided that I wanted to educate my peers on the issues in Africa, so I started doing research and writing a business plan. In my plan, I would create a philanthropic student

organization at Ball State that would educate my peers. I was almost f1nished with the business plan but was not satisf ed. Then I [found] Building Tomorrow. After learning about Building Tomorrow and the work they’ve done with other universities, I knew this was the perfect opportunity to actually put my project into action.”

Chapter Event Highlights:The BT chapter at Middlebury College hosted their Second Annual Brick by Brick event in September during Parent’s Weekend. Brick by Brick is a fundraiser whereby anyone can purchase a used brick, decorate it and, along with other donors, build a wall on campus to symbolize the chapter’s efforts to construct a primary-level academy in Uganda...literally brick by brick.
