Rain water tank built in 1968 but still standing. (it survived the war!)
Boribo Health Center and Hospital Facility.
Hospital....opened in January 2010. I think that cow is chewing on an old IV bag...
I have a new water and sanitation project! My counterpart, the hospital staff, and myself are building two drinking water stations at the hospital/health center in my town. The funding will go to building PVC pipes to connect the rain water tank to water filters that the hospital will buy at a subsidized rate. The pipes will also connect from the filters to a drinking water tank that we will build. One will be placed outside of the maternity ward of the hospital and the other outside of the health center. Currently, there is no drinking water available to hospital/health center patients. The hospital sees over 100 people per month and the maternity ward births over 200 babies per month. The health center consults/vaccinates/and treats over 1,000 people per month. Check out the link below!
