About the Cause
Posted by Assemblies of God Rwabutazi in Rwanda on 10/21/2024
This activity is aimed at combating diseases that are caused by poor sanitation and hygiene especially as a result of using toilets that do not meet the requirements. In fact, there are other problems that the church wants to address, but the most disturbing and worrying thing is the inadequate toilets. Our project has young children between the ages of 8-14 who need hygienic care, our church is located in a rural area where the means are limited. We tried to build a 5-room toilet but it is outdated and does not meet the requirements such as being used by people with disabilities, young children and the elderly. These toilets are expected to be used by children in a hygienic way because they will use water. The reason why we decided to seek donations is that the church receives about 600 different people a month, including children in the project, students, their parents and others who come to the church, since it is a church that has activities that help the society, including, a school that teaches sewing for children, parents of children those who are helped in the project learn to sew, children from the villages around the church study at the school located at the church, all those people meet at the church, so the quality of the bathroom becomes a problem. This bathroom will have 6 rooms including a bathroom that will be used by the toddlers who would need to be cleaned many times and girls who need improved hygiene.

How the church will sustain the Cause
The church congregation often offers labor to the community. We will make use of this same approach to ensure sustainability of the facility. Although it is not easy for some members, this is something we can continue to work on. We can even do reparations like we always do.
To be a religious church of Jesus Christ which holistically transforms community from poverty of body and sprit by using word of God and become the source of impact in society.
