🚨 Police Handcuff Man With Spinal Injury

A truly inspiring moment for us at SFI this morning at Madhuranthakanallur where we had built India's first Ecosan toilet seventeen years ago. The toilet that was fully in use had been damaged during the demolition of a nearby block which we were happy to repair.

SFI built the first ever Ecosan toilet block in a Govt High school, Mathuranthakanallur, in 2005 which was in full use until it got damaged during lockdown. Work in progress to bring it back to use. Images from 2005, 2012 and the work going on now....
