5 camps, one mission. Education & Safety for all!

Build #090 is a very unique one for BTCV. Supporting 5 cattle camps in South Sudan 🇸🇸— navigating hygiene, water, housing, the continuous movement of cattle, and mobile classrooms — virtually from the US has been an extremely rewarding experience. BTCV & expert Tracy Itty have worked alongside AUNDO, an organization that specifically works to improve WASH (water, sanitation & hygiene) and education access.

Cattle camps Ayen & Manyiel piloted the education component alongside WASH & hygiene training. Buol Cattle Camp has since launched its own education & WASH programs and is a little further along. Marial Cattle Camp is showing strong girl participation in its education/WASH program — a key priority from the very start of this process, making sure girls are included too.

This build is far from over! We’re excited for this continued partnership and to support our fellow Changers in South Sudan.

Be The Change! 🤍

Did you know there’s no such thing as a “BTCV School”? We don’t build our own schools around the world, tell schools what curriculum to use, or dictate what teachers and principals do. Instead, we partner with local schools, construct buildings the way they’re built in that country, empower teachers to teach to the best of their abilities, and support school leaders in making their school an amazing place to learn.

By empowering schools and communities, we build something truly sustainable — one where that community can stand on its own. 💪♥️

Our amazing & dedicated BTCV SPED liaisons, Danette and Kelly, made a huge impact in Esperanza.

They were able to lead trainings on behavior management & a general disability overview. They also came with token reinforcement boards, visual aids, and a sensory box for each teacher/classroom. Danette and Kelly also made themselves available for teachers to come with questions and they helped them to problem solve! We are so lucky to have two experts in the field using their abilities to make an impact in Esperanza! ♥️

“Being part of this team is truly a life long dream of mine. I have never in my life felt so sure that I was in the right place at the right time sharing my personal gifts and passions as I have the past 2 trips to Esperanza. It is a true honor and privilege to be a small piece of something so impactful. It is proof to me how interconnected we all are despite the many ways we are different. That our common focus on education is powerful and the impact spans way beyond the classrooms built. “ -Kelly McCabe

Build #088 this summer was in Esperanza, Peru!

The team completed buildings for the teacher workspace/principals office. Now meaningful planning for the classroom and collaborative meetings can take place and the old space can become a dedicated library. 📚 ♥️ 🇵🇪

Our Changers had the most incredible week at Makumba School, a truly special place where matriarchy shapes daily life in the village.

From community members of all ages pitching in to help us build, to teachers bursting with spirit and eager to pour into their students, the energy here is unforgettable. 💛

There is something truly special about Rwanda.

It's difficult to put into words, but those who have been there understand. The smiles, the resilience, the joy, and the incredible sense of community leave a lasting impression on everyone who visits.

Every trip reminds us that while we may come to serve, we always leave having received far more than we could ever give.

Thank you to our friends in Butare for welcoming us with open hearts. We are grateful for the opportunity to continue building alongside you, creating not just walls, but lasting friendships and hope for the future.
