I have a loo, you probably do too,
but for billions there’s no place to poo.
We are a 100% volunteer-based organization, where
every dollar benefits our projects and social impact.
"The lack of cleanliness can take our lives." -Charimaya Majhi, Jholunge, Nepal
No toilet means a lack of education for girls, dignity for women and dirty water contributing to diseases that claim the lives of almost 800 children everyday - one every two minutes! (UNICEF, 2018)
Project #1 - Project Kalika Phase Two (3000 CAD)
More than 60% of schools in Nepal do not have girl-friendly toilets that are private, clean, and usable. (UNICEF Nepal, 2021). We've partnered with the Karnali Public Health School and Kalika Primary School, in Tatopani, Jumla, with the goal of accomplishing the following:
Install a biosand filtration water system at Kalika Basic School to provide safe, bacteria-free drinking water every day.
Train two local teachers in operating and maintaining the filtration system through our partner NGO ENPHO and BIFAN, building local skills and ownership.
Provide hygiene and sanitation education— personal hygiene, menstrual hygiene, handwashing, and sanitation practices—for students and staff, in partnership with trainers from KAHS, on November 24–25, to create lasting behavior change.
