Build Toilets in a Government School

A School with No Toilet

The Mandal Parishad Primary School in Cherlapally was constructed 40 years but does not have a restroom till date. There are 120 girls and 100 boys in the school. The safety of the girls is a huge concern for teachers.

Local businesses and politicians have not shown any concern. Can we do something for the children. It would take about Rs 450,000/USD 7200 to make lives of these children better for a long time.

It troubled me to see children not drinking adequate water after their lunch as they had to go long distances to relieve themselves.

Dear Supporters,

Thank you for your support to our campaign. While, we were seeking your support for providing toilets in the school, we also sought attention of KTR and the District Collector. The Collector directed the District Education Officer to visit the school and assess the situation.

The DEO was taken aback at the plight of the children, especially the girls. The Collector has directed the DEO to start working on constructing toilets asap. As a stop gap arrangement, mobile toilets will be arranged.

We do not need to raise funds for this campaign anymore as the government will take care. We are stopping raising funds. The contributions received so far will be utilized for the School Annual Day planned on Feb 28. This is a victory of citizens indeed. A tweet from a common man to a State Minister has galvanized the Govt authorities into action.
