Everyone poops. But who wants to actually deal with it? We do! We're committed to transforming human waste into fertile organic compost for agricultural and reforestation use in Siaya and Homa Bay counties in Kenya. By installing 2 EcoSan toilets, we can turn waste into eco-friendly fertilizer, promoting sustainable agriculture and better sanitation. Ecosan toilets need no water for flushing, turning human waste into manure An Ecosan toilet has two toilet pans that open into separate concrete chambers below to store excreta. After defecating, one needs to sprinkle a handful of ash and close the lid. No flushing is required. There are separate outlets for urine and washing so no water enters the excreta chamber. This prevents insect breeding and foul smells, besides accelerating decomposition. A family would use one pan and chamber for five or six months. It is sealed once it is full and the second chamber is then used. By the time the second chamber fills up, the excreta in the first chamber becomes odorless compost and can be used as farm manure. The urine is collected in a separate container, mixed with water and also used in the fields as fertilizer.
Join us on this journey to realize our goal of raising $1,000 for materials, construction, and community training.
