More Information About this Project

Project Needs and Beneficiaries

As the polio victims themselves own the village and they alone will stay there, it is expected that they will take good care of their village. If they neglect it, they themselves will suffer. The produce from the workshops will be commercialized. Part of the proceeds will go to maintain the welfare of the Polio victims staying in the village, including feeding them, and part of the proceeds will be spent on maintenance of the buildings in the village.

Activities

We will buy the construction materials needed to build an external kitchen and then proceed in the building of the kitchen. The utensils needed in the kitchen will be bought locally.

Funding Information

Why this Project is Important

Potential Long Term Impact

The building of the housing units and workshops for the polio victims in Makeni is progressing well. The polio victims will need to eat once they move into the housing units. This kitchen will give them a proper feeling of being self-sustaining.

Project Message

This final touch to the polio victims village will be the finishing touch to give back livelihoods to these ostracized people.
