CURRENT PROJECTS
OFOASE, GHANA:
Currently we are engaged with a local church in Ofoase, which is located in the Eastern Region of Ghana. Overall, our plan in Ofoase includes the construction of both a medical clinic and school. Our plan of action is:
- Dig a well that will provide clean drinking water for the church, medical clinic, and school.
- Put in a septic system that will provide sanitary disposal of waste.
- Construct a medical clinic that will provide treatment for common diseases, but also stress the importance of preventative medicine.
- Construct a school that will provide primary education for the surrounding area.
The reason why we are proceeding in the order specified in our plan of action is that each step in the process provides a benefit to the community. Digging a well, provides access to clean water and lowers the risk of contracting diseases like diarrhea. A septic system lowers the risk of diseases that are transmitted through fecal matter, like Typhoid. The medical clinic will improve health even further by providing treatment and preventive medicine. Finally, the school will help provide educational resources that will improve the lives of future generations.
