Five water, one toilet

We have contracted for five shallow wells and two sets of composting toilets. We took today to travel to the sites to check on progress. For the toilets (Hamonoywa) the bricks are made and the slabs are in place. When the blocks finish curing the contractor will start building. The community has been most supportive, bringing food and even mattresses for the workmen who stay in one classroom.

There are five schools receiving water from the Rotary grant. Three are almost complete since they have struck water at depths of 30-40 ft. These are hand-dug wells so the workmen are lowered on ropes into the hole.
