Just $200 needed to dig toilets and improve sanitation for a whole village.

There's been a recent update to the site - Kisaru Maasai Community Projects - it's a completely brilliant organisation founded by Ben Longisa and is from where we have seen projects grow like the bio-gas at Enkereri Village. Another one of Ben's projects is to improve sanitation levels by constructing long-drop toilets at each Maasai boma in the area (about 40 in total).

It costs 16,000 Kes to construct one toilet, which is a tiny bit more than US $200. He has asked me if I can help him fundraise for four toilets (approx US $850) but if he can get just enough money for one then the construction will start right away and he will regularly update us with how the work is going.
