Not much has been happening in Egbelu since the completion of the wall and the well. With the rainy season in full force transportation from Owerri is difficult if not impossible so Kennedy hasn't been able to get to the site often.
We are still waiting on the final plans from the architect to get a firm estimate on the cost of the buildings. But we are moving ahead with fundraising with our BUY A BLOCK campaign. Due to the tropical climate most buildings in Nigeria are constructed of cement blocks. So we are giving you the opportunity to buy a block for our clinic building. The cost of one block is $2. That includes materials and labor to make the block and install it. We'll even scribble your name on it with a crayon if you'd like! Please be generous in your contribution to this campaign.
