community contribution
forgot to mention this in earlier posts. the program we are using to get the clinic built is an official peace corps program, the peace corps partnership program. one of the requirements is that the community involved make a contribution of 25% of the total project cost either in cash or kind form. because my community consits of sustenance farmers, we are making our contribution in kind form of brick molding (already finished!), gathering sand and stone for the foundation and labour. this is great as it will give the people a sense of ownership in the clinic.
