There was also need for fresh water because water was trucked in which is an expensive process. The Home had started digging a well and the IHHS has raised the funds to complete this project. In addition, it has help the orphanage with completing the need for mattresses and bedding as the children were sleeping three to one bed, on a twin bed. Also, the overdue medical and food have been paid.
