14 Ocoto Alto

15 Safe Water Project Phase 2 of 3 The community of Ocoto Alto is not unlike the millions of communities across the world that lack access to safe water and sanitation. The regional government lacks resources to tackle these problems and promote development which leaves the community with underdeveloped infrastructure. Children are constantly sick and missing school. Parents are trapped, desiring more for their families. Progress is stunted. Without help, there is little hope for this forgotten community

16 Safe water project phase 2 of 3 Sanitation is virtually non-existent for more than 2.5 billion people 38% of the world s population. People are forced to defecate in open places and rivers, contaminating their drinking water source. Lack of sanitation =endless cycle of waterborne disease, sickness and death. Lack of proper sanitation represents more than half the sources of gastrointestinal diseases caused by waterborne bacteria, viruses and worms. Inadequate sanitation is yet another inhibitor for the developing world, stripping people of their dignity

17 OCOTO ALTO Ocoto Alto is no different than millions of communities across the world that lack adequate sanitation facilities. The regional government lacks resources to tackle these problems and promote development. Children are sick and missing school. Parents are trapped, desiring more for their families. Without help, there is little hope for this forgotten community with underdeveloped infrastructure. The majority of this community obtains their household income as agricultural laborers. The average household income is $125 USD per month. The community has agreed to provide their own sand material, provide labor for digging individual seepage pits and mixing concrete

18 Organization Local Rotary Club = Rotary club of Capullanas Sullana, Sullana, Piura, Peru, district 4465 Joycie Carrasco Roa Missiones del Agua Peru, Maynas-Loreto, Peru Juan Simon International Club = Rotary Club of North Port Central, North Port, Florida, district 6960 Nils Weibull

19 Host RC Club The in-country host Rotary club s (RC) involvement is desired for identifying communities in need. During implementation, the host RC s involvement is sought for the initial community mobilization meeting, the leadership WASH awareness meeting and the commissioning ceremony The host RC s support is valuable in these specific areas because of its ability to be a positive influence in the community, especially with leadership, in helping to promote the project

20 International RC clubs The International RC s involvement is needed for project monitoring, financial accountability and data reporting. Volunteer opportunities during project implementation will be considered for Rotarians with specific skill sets. Project field visits for Rotarians without specific skill sets can coincide with the commissioning ceremony and/or follow-up visits as they provide an opportunity to evaluate the success of a project.

21 Time table and visits There are no specific timetables with any project activity. This is a community-led process which moves according to the community s pace. Misiones del Agua Peru will not push a commissioning to take place before the community is ready in order to facilitate a Rotarian visit. Will not hold off commissioning or delaying safe water, in order to facilitate a Rotarian visit.
