Getting the NOD for better sanitation

Three communities in Solomon Islands successfully celebrated the achievement of No Open Defecation status last month.

"Jesus cares for me" was the theme of a weekend camp held at the Wind Valley Adventist Church compound in Solomon Islands.

The school has been without proper toilets for the past three years with the previous ablution block removed due to health concerns.

Atoifi staff are looking forward to the completion of the clinic, saying it will make a big difference for dental patients.

Wind Valley is a church plant of the White River Adventist church, which began in late 2008.

The facilities were provided by ADRA Solomon Islands through the Turn on the Tap project.

Almost 16 years since the church began, members are looking towards constructing a permanent structure.

Plantation owner Allen Auga was facing disaster due to a rat infestation before ADRA stepped in to assist.

Enhancing the students' nutrient intake is not only good for their health but is also expected to help improve their academic performance.
