school toilet construction project. We proposed the construction of an easy water toilet at Community secondary Ogbunka, in Orumba South local government area of Anambra State, Nigeria. The aim of this project was to provide adequate sanitation and hygiene for children who attend rural schools in Nigeria, especially considering the needs of girls who often miss school due to issues related to sanitation and personal hygiene. The open defecation used by the children exposed them to diseases.

Helpers Foundation school toilet construction project in public schools
The school toilet construction project has been completed in 2021. Building the facilities has helped to increase the number of the school enrolment rate. For a nation to witness growth, the well-being of children should be the main priority. Nigeria is witnessing a decline in every sector of our economy because Nigeria’s leader did not have a better plan for children. A greater percentage of Nigerians preferred to go to private schools due to the decline of infrastructure in public institutions in Nigeria. 85% of Nigerian public schools do not a property sanitary facilities, which leads teachers and pupils to use open defecation in schools. Helpers Social Development Foundation wants to see this challenge reduce to ensure children and teachers are safe in school while learning.
