2.6 billion.

That is the number of people who have no access to a toilet of any form. That makes me feel sick to my stomach. That means they do not even have this latrine, which is full and floods into the kitchen of the Espinoza family a few times a year.



Please listen to this link from KUOW (NPR) that I heard on my way to work a few days ago...I had hoped to just upload the section on reinventing the toilet but I am not tech savvy enough to do that. So, if you start at 10mins 13secs you will find the part I want you to listen to...

Think about this quote, putting in a latrine will reduce disease by 40%...

Reinventing the Toilet Challenge

For a clean water project, and story of hope in Uganda read THIS STORY...then please think about donating by sponsoring a child/supporting our Sustainable Development Department.

Send me a comment if you are interested.
