Training of water management committees
By Mbeng Simon Nsah | The Director
Considering the need to ensure the sustainability of clean and safe drinking water in communities around Fundong, the staff of Better Family Foundation (BFF) have organised for water committee members of all the communities we have constructed water schemes.
These refresher courses were massively attended by all the stakeholders involved. They were drilled for three days on water maintenance and operation. It was very enriching and participants shared practical experiences. By this refresher seminar, weak water management committees were revived. The participants were paid their meagre transportation fare and provided food.
We are highly appreciated to all our donors for the great support they are giving us in order to enble us carry through this program.

Monitoring and evaluation of water schemes
By Mbeng Simon Nsah | The Director
Better Family Foundation (BFF) staff has since the last report been on the field to monitor and evaluate BFF completed water schemes in order to fully assess its maintainenance and impact on the communities in which they operate. So far communities visited include Ngwainkuma, Meli, Alim, Boyui, Atu-abuh, Muteff, Bainjong and Isai-abuh.
During this excercise, it was realized that all the communnities had local functional water management committees except Meli village. In deed the staff appreciated the communities and gave them more technical knowledge on how to manage their water effectively. TThe team was impressed that the lives of the community memebers were improved as a result of the supply of the water schemes. At Meli, the team is making plan to mobilise the community memebers and re-educate or train them on the importance of clean safe drinking water and their role in maintaining their water.
BFF continues to appreciate all those who have been contributing in whatever way to support these villages to have good drinking.

By Mbeng Simon Nsah | The Director
During the last quarter Better Family Foundation (BFF) embarked on the extension of safe drinking water from Abuh village to the Government High School (GHS) Abuh. This school has existed for over ten years without good quality water for the students and teachers to be driniking while in school. The authority of the school applied to BFF to assist provide the institution with safe drinking water.
In repect to the application from the school, BFF Management decided to use the funds raised for water projects to extend good quality water supply from the Abuh village to the establishment.This covers a disance of one kilometre. Two stand taps were constructed in the school and the water offered the school the opportunity of making use of improved modern toilets to serve the school.
BFF Management is very grateful to all who have contributed in any way towards the realization of the project.
