Infrastructure:Toilet Blocks

We have completed Toilet Blocks at two of our partner schools in Goa.

Our club has helped in the Planning and

Construction of Toilet Blocks, while the Schools have ensured availability of location and necessary permissions, and will ensure that the toilets are maintained properly.


The Toilet Blocks project will benefit 229 people – 119 boys, 90 girls and 20 teaching and non-teaching staff members.

School#1: Yuwak Sangh


Before we started implementing the project, the school had a run-down toilet that was not being used by students.



Hence, some of the students to used the open areas adjoining the school, or went back to their homes.



Drop-out ratio among Girls

This also impacted the drop-out ratio among girls. By providing the toilet blocks, the children including girls will have the privacy and the hygiene of proper toilets.


Toilet Blocks inaugurated on 5 April 2010 by AG Rtn. Shankar Kirlaparkar on behalf of the District Governor Rtn. Gurudatta D. Bhakta. Also present were the School Management, and Rotarians from the Vasco da gama and Dabolim clubs.







School#2: Anjuman School

The project will benefit 1348 people – 781 boys, 519 girls and 40 staff.
