Dome Slab Latrines

The past few weekends in Nkokonjeru have been working ones! Sam has been busy constructing dome slab latrines in Mayirikiti, a village in our Town Council. These latrines require only one bag of cement each and therefore are a cost-effective alternative for families that cannot easily afford traditional designs. So far, five latrines have been built with a donation made by our friends at UC Davis. Beneficiaries will pay four equal installments over the next four months, and this repayment will allow RASD to continue building for more families.
