Who are you trying to help? What issue are you trying to address?

We operate in Eyangntui Village and Mamfe Town. The economy here is agrarian in nature. The major economic activity in and around the villages is subsistence agriculture. There are no hospitals or clinics in Eyangntui Village. The village doesn’t have electricity or piped water so that people drink directly from the river without any purification or filtering system. This means that children suffer from waterborne diseases. There are also many mosquitoes which transmit malaria, and the the shallow toilets that attract flies also help to transmit disease.

We want to do something about the poor hygiene existing in the area, and that particularly affects children.
