Uniquely Abled Fitness
Same As U has partnered with Uniquely Abled Fitness as a local chapter to provide students with a fun, safe, and effective exercise program.
02
Build the healthy environments
Working together, we invest in the lives of children and youth, build the healthy environments they need to thrive, and empower them to create lasting change in their own lives and communities.
We pay school fees and provide uniforms and other essentials to help orphans fulfill their academic potential and escape from a life in poverty. More than 80% of our former beneficiaries manage the transition to higher education.
The students supported by our programs face major barriers to accessing education; many are orphaned, living in extreme poverty or dealing with other difficult family circumstances.
