                                  UGANDA: Bupala Primary School Building Project

                                  Project Highlights:
                                  • Help the community and builders install new, private latrines for the Bupala Primary School. All participants will be able to help in some way.  And – let's get right to it – there's no poop involved in the project. A latrine is a simple building covering a septic pit. Nobody will be using the facilities while they're being built.
                                  • The Iganga village experience is so much more than work. There will be plenty of time to chill out (average December temperature, 70 degrees Fahrenheit) in the beautiful surroundings, spend time with the Bubala Primary School kids and meet the local community.
                                  • There's even an option for white water rafting
                                  • Hiking in Sipi Falls plus a day of urban tourism in Kampala.
