Your donation will allow the fishing village group/community to purchase the materials needed to build the structure ie toilets, pvc piping, concrete, cement, bricks, steel rod, nails, commodes etc and the  hiring of manpower to construct/build this structure. The community has developed a well thought of plan that includes a detailed list of the materials that will be used to build the structure, projected timeline of project, a detailed maintenance schedule, and owner management meeting schedules. A fee of 20 Liberian dollars (11 cents) will be charged for use of the facilities. 30% of the monies that is collected will be used for cleaning supplies, toilet paper, hand washing soap, and maintenance workers. With the completion of this project, the goal to decrease human waste  in the ocean and in the grave yards will be achieved and the community will live in a healthier cleaner environment. The fish that will be caught and eaten, will be cleaner and healthier to consume. 

About 49% of Liberians lack access to toilets, many practicing open defecation
