goal
When my Dad was sent to India on a job, he was disgusted at the filth and poor sanitation that he saw. It is no wonder that there are so many issues with disease. These people do need to hear the gospel message, and there are lots of people dedicated to making that happen. But physically, the most important thing they need is the knowledge and facilities to prevent and avoid disease.
A major part of the problem is a lack of good bathroom facilities. If the people of inner Asia could have access to an outhouse and proper knowledge of sanitation measures, the whole area would benefit greatly from it. More importantly, they would have the chance to live long enough to hear and spread the news of the Messiah to those around them. The people are eager to hear and it is much needed.
So here's the idea. We may not always be able to afford the cost of an outdoor toilet individually, but we can work together to give what is needed.
If 100 people each donated as little as $10, we would quickly have $1000. That's enough for more than 6 toilet facilities. That's more than 6+ families who wouldn't use their water source for a bathroom and thus introduce disease into their homes and the area around them.

2.6 billion people don't have access to even a basic toilet. This leads to bad public sanitation and increases the risk of diarrhea, cholera, typhoid, trachoma and parasitic worms. Further, many people refrain from drinking liquids and suffer from dehydration to avoid the difficulty of going to the bathroom.
For every $160 raised, GFA can build an outdoor toilet that provides a safe, clean, and free way for men, women, and children to use the restroom.
