Since 2018, Baylor BUV has been partnered with Village of Hope, a non-profit organization that provides housing, family reconnections, school, skills training and medical care to the victims of recent civil wars in Uganda. The BUV team traveled to Uganda in May 2018 and May 2019 to teach local trade students how to build a Basic Utility Vehicle. Our goal is, rather than simply building and donating a BUV, to teach the community how to build one themselves. This allows them to learn about building and repairing these vehicles independently, while also providing them with much-needed transportation for water, crops, medicine and people.
