The Completion oftoilets in the Orphanage
With the support of the Chikuma International Exchange Association and others, JEN constructed four toilets in an orphanage in the Charikar region of the Province of Parwan.
130 children, who have lost their parents and relatives in the long war, live at the orphanage and make the most of the opportunities offered to them in these difficult times. However, the level of hygiene at the orphanage is unacceptable, There was only one single toilet so the children had to go outdoors.
Government support is insufficient for the children living at the orphanage so it is important to let them know that there are people who care about them who are working to improve their sanitary situation.
Shar Muhmmed (14) living at the orphanage exclaimed , “Before JEN put in the toilets, we only had one that was very dirty. Now we have new toilets, and it is very clean.”
JEN hopes to continue the improvement of education and sanitization at orphanages with your support.
