The women organized several community work where they collectively made sundry bricks by themselves, participated on the digging around the building. They leveled the surrounding and the frontage of the building. Most of their community work is usually organized on non farming days. Attendance is compulsory for every woman in the community. They work happily as they record the progress nature of the work. During the building of the kitchen, they carried water and supplied sundry bricks which were made and packed in one of the rooms because of rain. Currently, they are working on the kitchen which is aimed at helping patients and carers to prepare food, heat water etc. This is very important. The women have the hope of getting into the building when it is plastered and plywood put on the ceiling, because they can still start using local beds and un-cemented floors. We thank the donors who had supported this project in the past. The women of Mbosha are peasant farmers and very committed to their project. They work on this project according to the available resources. When ever there is any possibility of getting something done, they do it without any hesitation. The have a weekly meeting in which they discuss, evaluate and plan their activities. It through this method that all the manual work done is arranged and carried out collectively. Any message to the community is also passed through this forum i.e. a doctor coming to weigh under five, give health talks and give vaccination etc. They are looking forward to moving on to the new site as soon as they are able to put the ceiling board as the knockings have been completed, the leveling of the surrounding done, and the building of the small Kitchen is also going on. We are sorry our lines have given us a lot of difficulties to get the report and the attachment get through. We hope to continue reporting on the progressive nature of this project until it is fully realized. We are glad some team members of the Global Giving shall be visiting this project at the end of June 2011.
