Dear Friends,
As summer approaches, help SOIL promote safety, dignity, and health in Haiti. Every $30 donation builds a toilet, which can provide safe in-home sanitation to a family, curb the spread of waterborne disease, and protect local water resources. SOIL treats 100% of the wastes from our toilets, transforming something dangerous into rich, vital compost to help heal Haiti's soils. Please join us in saving lives and growing a healthier future for Haiti.
With love from Haiti,
Sasha and the SOIL team
About SOIL:
SOIL is a non-profit research and development organization working in Haiti to design, test, and implement social business models to affordably and effectively increase access to sanitation services. SOIL works at the nexus of economic empowerment, sanitation access, and climate change mitigation.
For a small monthly fee SOIL’s social business, EkoLakay, provides over 1,000 households with ecological sanitation (EcoSan) toilets and waste treatment services - all waste is safely transformed into rich compost in a treatment process that respects World Health Organization standards. Revenues from toilet user fees and compost sales support ongoing project costs and showcase the potential to affordably provide household sanitation in the world’s most impoverished urban communities. SOIL compost (100+ metrics tons produced annually – increasing every year) is used to support agriculture and reforestation efforts in Haiti, ensuring phosphorus recirculation and improving soil carbon sequestration. SOIL is also conducting comparative research with partner institutions to evaluate the climate impact of composting waste treatment versus traditional waste treatment methods.
*All contributions will go directly to support SOIL's programming on the ground in Haiti. Contributions may not be used solely to construct toilets.
Are you sure?
