Project LIVES
RADION Newsletter – 2nd Quarter 2010
Thursday, July 1st, 2010StreetKids + Project LIVES!
Saturday, February 28th, 2009Alright. Some of you have been asking to see the new place where the streetkids are putting up.
The impetus for the shift from our field office to the new place is due to the constant influx of new children and more importantly, our children are growing up. So we do foresee problems if they share a single room at the basement of my office.
So here it is, it isn’t 5-star but its just perfect for our expanding streetkids work. This is what it has…
- 4 Rooms
- Storeroom (or rather storage corridor)
- 2 Toilets (One inside and one out in the field!)
- 1 External kitchen
- 1 big hall which we partitioned to cater for more storage space.
- Parking space
- On a plot of field which is roughly the size of 1 football field
- The house and parking place to the left.
- Open area used for games and stuff :)
- This little outfit used to house pigs. But we’re going to convert it to a mushroom farm :)
- The kitchen behind the house. There is no proper dining area, so we’ll be trying to do a little reno here for a proper dining area.
- The boy’s room and their spanking new double deck beds (which arrived together with the container)
- The girls room. Slightly larger. Right now we have 7 girls staying in this room.
- This place used to be a living room…. until the container rolled in :) Temporary storage and sorting of container reliefs.
Arrival Of Project LIVES! Container
Friday, February 27th, 2009The container arrived early yesterday morning after some small delays at the port. The goods arrived all intact
As you know, the village has low hanging wires as such the container can only reach the main holding area and we had to use an additional 3 trucks and engage our part time workers to assist in the unloading process.
From the main holding area, the reliefs were shuttled to 2 different storage areas for easy access. The first is our existing office and ops hub, the second is our new streetkids! accommodation building.
Some pictures of the day in actions..
- Container rolling into the holding area just at 0730am.
- Some of the 1456 boxes of cargo.
- The unloading in progress
- Container unloading completed at 1300
