41 Families in Llano Grande Will Benefit from Improved Sanitation

We have begun the construction of 41 household sanitation units in the community of Llano Grande, El Triunfo, a project that will provide 41 families with access to safer and improved sanitation facilities.

This initiative is being implemented in partnership with the Spanish Rotarians Humanitarian Foundation (FHRE) and the City Council of Santiago de Compostela, with the goal of expanding access to essential sanitation services through safe, dignified, and appropriate household infrastructure.

Beyond improving health and hygiene conditions, the project will provide safer and more private spaces for women, girls, and children, enhancing the quality of life of beneficiary families while helping prevent disease within the community.
