The 40in40.org team partnered with ECOAN to fund the building of bathrooms for 4 of 36 families located on the Valley of the Condor. These families currently live without an established sewage system and electricity. Our project was able to build self-sustained septic bathrooms that would avoid water contamination near and around each family’s village. Furthermore, the 40in40.org funded the implementation of 8 solar kits to individual families in needs.

 

After our trip, 40in40.org learned about the need for families to utilize an efficient mini stove that utilizes 60% less wood and would aid in reforestation in the area. 40in40.org donated sufficient funds to purchase 150 mini stoves.
