The Priority - School Children

It is heartbreaking to talk to some of the residents in the earthquake affected areas to find out how their hopes have been shattered. Many have lost their loved ones, many are separated from their families, and many are not yet sure how to recover from the shock. The local communities have started planning and prioritizing the reconstruction projects in their region. However, their needs are unlimited while the resources are limited. Keeping this in mind, we are going to run the pilot project rebuilding the schools and providing sanitary toilets in those schools. This would be an important first step to provide the most vulnerable section of the society - the children - with well maintained toilets. We hope the children take the good practice to their homes and increase the overall social benefit by reducing the risk of spreading contagious diseases.
