The Bavubuka All*Sports

September 17, 2009

Bavubuka All*Sports is founded on the belief that group sports promote cooperation, improve health, develop self-confidence and provide much-needed leisure time for disadvantaged youth. In poverty-stricken ghettos and war-torn regions, children have little access to what UNESCO calls the right to recreation.  During the first two years Bavubuka All*Sports project fundraised over 1200 pounds of gear for sports including basketball, soccer (European football), boxing, and badminton. These donations were shipped to Uganda and distributed as training equipment to teams and players throughout the country who were identified by their strong work ethics. It is incredibly difficult for most Ugandans to support their children in recreational activities due to the difficult economic situation. Bavubuka All*Sports maintains strong relationships with members of the community at large to facilitate entire teams of young athletes.
