HOME/BUILDING
REPAIRS

Giving elderly people's homes a fresh coat of paint can make it feel like they received a new lease on life.  Life of the Village Foundation is aiming to work with the whole community to encourage everyone to find pride in keeping their places nice.

In the villages there are families who have been used to living without electricity.  When they do get it, they often don't know what to do when they need repairs.  We've serviced several homes where the lights or electrical outlets stopped working.

Life of the Village Foundation has helped bring in a new well pumps and installed/repaired them to make sure there is fresh water for people, animals, and crops.

When walking, we came across a dear, elderly lady whose doors and windows were crumbling.  It became extremely serious for her after someone broke in during the night and held a knife to her throat.  After hearing that, we hired a welder to make all new doors and windows.

The lady and her invalid son are now secure in their home with the newly built and installed metal doors and windows.  They allow a fresh breeze to cool the house, while at the same time keeping thieves from breaking in.  It gives them both peace of mind and a much better sleep!

After many years of Bethel Orphanage not having a fresh coat of paint, they are very happy with the change!  Pastor Victor of the village has been diligently painting building after building.  The eldest orphan mentioned that no one else had been so faithful coming again and again to finish the whole project!
