Village Network Africa Boling

Vina trained community members to become leaders in health promotion and disease prevention. The program, led by the trained villagers, seeks to reduce the incidence of communicable diseases in the villages through local community education in various health-related areas such as basic hygiene and malaria prevention. Health clubs have been created to educate villagers in the most unreachable, rural areas.

Vinas water project in tanzania supplements the health training the villagers receive. Vina funded the construction of 7 rain catchment systems, including 5,000l water tanks and purification filters for each system. During the late summer/fall 2013 andrew bui, an engineer will oversee implementation of his plan. With the cooperation of the local government officials and villagers, andrew pinpointed problems and identified solutions for increased access to clean water. The three to five year master plan includes use of a different, more abundant water source, improved distribution, and water treatment.
