Handwashing Station Project

In August, my women's group showed me a "tippy-tappy" they built in order to wash their hands (see a picture below for what they initially showed me) before and after meals and after the use of their household latrines.

I thought it was a great idea since we do not have running water, and the vast majority of villagers eat with their right hand at every meal. I wrote a grant to get the materials (a little updated in hopes that they will last longer rather than the already recycled, often hard to get a hold of containers) in order to have each woman be able to build one in their compound. The end of August the grant was approved and I was able to get all the materials in September. You can see the completion report here!
