Hello to all our dear supporters! We are very excited and grateful to write this update today. We want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your support of the Growing and Learning Project. We have started our renovation! In the photos, you can see that we are already raising the sink and toilet area. The front part has also started. Even our pastor is getting his hands dirty, working hard on the project. Since the work has just begun, we don't yet have stories of the finished space, but I am sure that this construction will benefit many people. When everything is ready, our children will have a clean, safe and good place to use. This will greatly improve the space of our church and the care for our community. You have helped us a lot and we are very happy! We will continue working with great enthusiasm. Thank you so much for believing in our project!
Our cause is to renovate the bathrooms of the social project that serves children and adolescents in the community. Today, the bathrooms are in poor condition: there are leaks, cracks, blockages, poor ventilation, and old and damaged sinks and toilets. Each bathroom has only one toilet and one sink, and the space is visibly worn out. These problems compromise the hygiene, dignity, and comfort of those who use the space daily.
Children and adolescents often comment that “it’s really bad to use that bathroom.” And in fact, it is difficult to provide a welcoming environment without also taking care of this much-needed space. Many of them spend a good part of the day in the project, and the least we can offer is a clean, safe, and dignified environment for their basic needs.
The proposal is to carry out a complete renovation: replacing toilets and sinks, new tiles, interior and entrance doors, adequate ventilation, efficient lighting, installation of mirrors, partitions, improvements in accessibility, and even spaces with showers, if possible. The workforce will be local, with affordable materials, and all improvements will be made with great care.
This renovation will transform the environment, show children that they are valued and further strengthen the impact of the project on their lives.
Our church seeks the integral development of children, caring for their spiritual, emotional, intellectual and social life. We promote Christian values, a safe environment and healthy teaching, so that they grow up with faith, love and purpose in God.
