With your support, the project has been able to collect USD 2419, which is a great success and a sign of trust among the supporters and donors.
The amount that has been received by AWARD, will be spent on constructing four toilets for needy families in the rural areas of Faisalabad. Due to high and unsettling inflation (nearly 46%) in the country, AWARD decided to postpone construction during this quarter. AWARD will be able to start the project during the next quarter. However, the AWARD team has been meeting communities and doing assessments of the marginalized and remote areas where open defecation is quite common. AWARD Pakistan will be constructing 40 toilets in the coming quarter for these communities.
The project on GlobalGiving has generated great support and will continue reaching out to communities and families where toilets are still an exception.
Nearly 10 percent of the population of Pakistan lacks access to sanitary toilets, enabling diseases like typhoid, polio, diarrhea, jaundice, and cholera to flourish. The women and children with no toilets venture outside the house in pitch darkness with a gas lamp every day, with no access to a toilet for the rest of the day, making them vulnerable and unsafe.
We request that all our donors keep supporting us and keep donating.
