Something’s fishy in the state of Angola

In the two years since the project began they have cleared an area beside the river, planted a garden, dug three fish pools, built a house with a bathroom with running water and an outhouse area with four sinks, also with running water. For a small charge the local women will be able to do their family laundry at a sink rather than standing in the river. The water incidentally goes through a process of natural filtration and is of good quality.  It was impressive.

This is a business enterprise which not only benefits him but also the local community. The project has already provided employment for two years, and the ongoing upkeep and management will provide more jobs.  This man is of course very fortunate in that he has benefited from a good education and not everyone has that opportunity.
