see the impact firsthand

Vision trips are our classroom where we give you an inside look at what our work is all about and how we do it. When you travel to Uganda with us, you will visit sites where UWP has done water projects, is currently working on projects, and will be doing projects in the future. Your team’s activities in these communities could include demonstrating how to use water filters, learning from our Ugandan staff how to install rainwater collection systems and repair borehole wells, capturing the stories of people who have been impacted by UWP’s work, participating in celebration services, teaching hand washing & sanitation lessons, playing with children, and helping to conduct surveys of communities where UWP might work in the future. But make no mistake: thanks to our talented and hardworking Ugandan staff, the work you participate in or observe during your trip will have been in motion long before your arrival and will continue long after your departure, so the right posture for members of our Vision Trips is that of a student, not a savior.

Vision Trips are moderately physical so come prepared to walk long distances to community water sources, get your hands dirty at our project installation sites, and spend each day on your feet under the bright Ugandan sun. It will be an adventure, but trust us, it’s worth it.
