For the last several years, requests from teachers and local leaders to Government authorities about the lack of restrooms in the school did not bear fruit. Last week, the teachers requested Sphoorti to consider raising funds for building a couple of toilets. Besides creating a campaign on GlobalGiving, we also tried approaching Cabinet Minister in Telangana Government Mr. KTR for support.
Mr KTR quickly acted on our request. On Saturday, various Government officials visited the school premises and assessed the situation. The District Collector assured that the toilets will be built within a month's time. In addition, a boundary wall and drainage connection have also been sanctioned.
Since the Government is taking up the responsibility in toto, we have decided to stop accepting funds further for toilets in the school.
We will consult the donors for their advice on how the funds raised so far can be utilised.
Project reports on GlobalGiving are posted directly to globalgiving.org by Project Leaders as they are completed, generally every 3-4 months. To protect the integrity of these documents, GlobalGiving does not alter them; therefore you may find some language or formatting issues.
