Flushed with Joy

Children sing in gleeful appreciation for many things: a victory in school or sports, receiving a new toy, the chance to go somewhere special…

But would your child sing joyfully for something as common as… a toilet?

In poverty-stricken nations throughout the Caribbean and Latin America, schools do not have the sanitation facilities we take for granted in the United States. Instead of running water and flushing toilets, some destitute schools only have old, decrepit pit toilets available for student use.

Adequate sanitation is an important aspect of good hygiene and overall health. Food For The Poor builds sanitation blocks in poverty-stricken schools, giving children facilities that restore dignity and promote well-being.

Your gift for sanitation facilities for schools will bring smiles to young faces and profound gratitude for something very basic. Please click here to make a donation today.
