Sewage & Toilet Construction Program

Our Sanitation program builds essential sewage systems and toilet facilities in communities lacking proper sanitation infrastructure. Access to clean, safe sanitation facilities is crucial for health, dignity, and safety, particularly for women and children.

Each sanitation project includes properly constructed toilets, sewage disposal systems, and handwashing stations. We also provide education on hygiene practices and facility maintenance, ensuring communities can maintain improved sanitation practices for years to come.

About Our Sanitation Projects

Project Components

Each sanitation project includes construction of ventilated improved pit (VIP) latrines or pour-flush toilets depending on local conditions, proper sewage disposal systems, handwashing stations, and drainage systems to prevent standing water and mosquito breeding grounds.

Community Facilities

We build sanitation facilities for schools, health centers, and community spaces. Special attention is given to creating safe, private facilities for women and girls, who often face harassment or danger when using public facilities or open defecation areas.

Hygiene Education

Each construction project includes comprehensive hygiene education programs for the community. Topics include proper handwashing, safe water handling, menstrual hygiene management, and facility maintenance to ensure sustainable impact.

Sanitation Crisis Facts

  • 2.3 billion people worldwide lack basic sanitation facilities
  • Diarrheal diseases kill over 800 children under 5 every day
  • Proper sanitation can reduce diarrhea risk by up to 40%
  • Girls often drop out of school when they begin menstruating if schools lack proper facilities
"Since the new toilets were built at our school, attendance has improved dramatically, especially for teenage girls. Before, many girls would skip school during their menstrual cycles because there was no privacy. Now they can attend school with dignity, and handwashing stations have helped reduce illness among all our students."
