With the help of Food For The Poor (FFTP) Guyana Inc., 15 families living in the Amerindian community of Capoey, in Region Two, will be spending Christmas in their own houses.
The houses have been handed over to the families, although no formal ceremony was held due to COVID-19 restrictions.
Approximately 79 persons living in the 15 households are beneficiaries. The houses come with a rain harvesting component, which is to assist families in safely storing water for consumption and domestic purposes. Each home was partially furnished with beds, a table and chairs, a gas stove, and a small solar panel system to power three bulbs and charge a cell phone.
