\u201cRepair or eat? Unplanned expenses like those caused by this storm put us in great distress.\u201d<\/p>\nKenneth Kabweru<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

8th February 2023. Rainy season. Heavy rains and storms devas\u00adtate the region. HOREMI\u2019s main house is also damaged and the latrine is destroyed.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/div>

HOREMI makes an appeal for dona\u00adtions to its closest circle of friends. Within a week, at least the main house is repaired.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/div>

The latrine, however, has to be completely rebuilt. Costs: around 800 dollars. The friends transfer more money.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/div>

Work on the new latrine starts in mid-March. A pit is dug, bricks, cement, iron grids, sand etc. are bought.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/div>

In April, the money runs out. School fees and food take prece\u00addence. But HOREMI does not want to ask for dona\u00adtions again, the work is inter\u00adrupted.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/div>

It is not until August 2023 that the Circle of Friends learns that the latrine was never finished because about 200 dollars are missing. As soon as the money is trans\u00adferred, the construc\u00adtion continues. <\/p><\/div>\n

<\/div>

Finally, a loyal HOREMI friend raises the last dollars for the plas\u00adtering \u2026<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/div>

\u2026 and two days later the construc\u00adtion is completed \u2014 finally!<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
