MSF executed the initiative during the period of August – October 2015. We approached
the DDO & the collector of Vadodara & Chhotaudepur district regarding our initiative.
We took names of villages & beneficiaries not having sanitation facility.
We short listed two villages in Chhotaudepur district named Bhordali & Jetpurpavi & inVadodara district we short listed Hansipura & Machhalipura villages.
With the support of the sarpanch & talati of those places, we have been successful in
rehabilitating 43 families by providing them our portable toilets in the above areas.
The portable toilets can be taken to rural areas easily in a knock down condition and
fast execution can be carried out with minimum man-power.
Hence forth we could finish the project in record time of 3 months!!
Impact:
We have distributed, implemented and rehabilitated sanitation of 43 individual
families in and around tribal areas of Chhotaudepur and villages around
Vadodara, almost changing lives of 260 people in a record time of 3 months!
Today on 14/12/2015 Mr. Asim Chandra & Miss. Anwesha Chandra both visited the
beneficiaries of Hansjipura & Machhalipura villages of toilet project as per schedule.
Mr. Laxmanbhai Thakor, Deputy Sarpanch & Member of Panchayat body of Hansjipura met
with them and he seemed very excited and thankful to MSF for the toilet blocks. Quoting him,
“the toilet blocks has changed the health & lifestyle of families of 6 beneficiaries of my village
and specially the women of their families. They regularly use it, clean it and suggests others to
use it too. Better part of the toilets are that each of all are installed within two hours whereas
normal toilets taking almost 10 to15 days to install”
