The mission of BUILDING UP is to secure and connect resources with local and global entities to develop sustainable healthcare, wellness and educational programs developing thriving communities of wholeness. It was a life transforming experience that inspired a group from Ann Arbor, MI to raise money for various projects to improve the health and wellbeing of the Sayyi community. Building Up: Part
nering in Health and Wellness began out of a project to raise money for a health clinic, and the ideas began to grow into more than this ambitious fundraising project. The clinic ( ) will provide the community with nearby healthcare, dental clinics, and education in health and wellness. Another project, Soles for Souls: Uganda Style, will teach them to produce shoes to protect their feet from worms. Our partnership with the people of Sayyi, Stone and Compass, and other organizations will provide internship opportunities and future projects that will lead to a future of health, wholeness, and sustainability.
