#WeHelpNepal is funding Prakrit Ko Gar and their work delivering tents and solar lights to villages around Nepal. The organization's focus is on permaculture, and they have designed a locally-produced base for a composting toilet.
The base for the toilet is made of steel as opposed to plastic. While this makes it heavier to carry than plastic versions donated by NGO's, they can be locally produced for a low cost-overhead, and useable for other materials once the toilets are no longer in use.
Relief aid, while well intentioned, often ends up in the pockets of corrupt local bureaucrats and/or multinational contracts, with very little reaching the people that actually need it. Ensure that your contributions reach those in need.
