- Notes
- Suzan went to the upper side of Buluvu village to follow up on the smearing activity and also to monitor the progress of the program facilities especially the stove usage.
When she arrived there, she went to the committee chairperson’s home which was near the meeting place and found her gathered with a few community members.
After welcoming her to the village, Suzan had a few discussions with them informing them about the activity to be carried out that day. Together they stood up and began moving around the village visiting home to home while monitoring the program facilities. Most members had improved on their sanitation and smeared their facilities such as the main house, kitchen, stoves and shower areas. Other members promised to improve on their homes once they got some free time because currently they were attending to their gardens since it was now a rainy season.
Suzan thanked some members for improving on their sanitation and hygiene and encouraged them to always maintain all their facilities especially by smearing their stoves and houses whenever they got cracks and worn out. She also requested them to try and work as a team whereby the young energetic members would assist fellow members especially the elderly people how to smear their houses since some of them were very weak and sickly.
The community was so grateful for the healthy and safe kitchen program, generally thanking Kibo group for the love and kind heart they showed them for it would greatly improve on their healthy wellbeing once they continued working together as a community. The meeting then came to an end with the members wishing Suzan a safe journey back home.
