Working side by side with the local residents our goal is to build small bath houses for the community. Many of the residents have no privacy when the bathe or use the restroom, performing these basic human tasks in the open. Most of those that do have facilities do so in structure with a vault toilet and no running water. Our proposed bath houses include a flushable toilet, shower, sink, changing area, and running water.
This project would be ideal for ongoing mission trip activities and offers short-term construction mission teams to work side by side with the local residents of the community we serve.
Estimated cost for this project is $1,000 USD per bath house
Provide initial start-up funding for a community run chicken farm.
A family in La Florida has offered the use of almost 5 acres of property to facilitate a community run chicken farm. This project can provide food and jobs for the residents.
Secure fencing, a hen house, running water, feed, a shaded area, and baby chicks are required to move this project forward.
This project would make for an ideal mission outreach.
Estimated start-up cost is $4,500 USD.
Chicken farming
Rent a local building for a community market/grocery store. The building is large enough that we will setup a kitchen to prepare school lunches, store donated food and other items and in the future install washing machines so the families will no longer need to walk down to the river to do their laundry.
Rent, $250/month
Estimated cost for materials to setup the kitchen is $3,000
Washing machines are $750 each
Provide a reliable internet connection at the facilities for remote learning and security.
Equipment cost is $650 and $55 per month for service.
Satellite Internet Equipment
A separate fund for building maintenance and upkeep. Installation of roof gutters and water run-off collection. Paint to keep the buildings looking fresh and clean.
This project would be ideal for ongoing mission trip activities.
