Steamships Supports Sago Network
06 August 2019
The Steamships Trading Company and Sago Network have partnered in delivering the Laukanu Sanitation Project in Salamaua Lae.
The Laukanu Sanitation Project aims to improve hygiene, sanitation and health workshops in communities with a focus on female health and hygiene.
Sago dry toilet fabrication is in demand and has grown interest from the aid sector as well as the private sector in PNG.
The project is funded under the Steamships Community Grants Programme as part of its social initiative towards funding projects that improve the quality of education, health, social welfare as well as environmental sustainability.
“We are pleased to be a part of a project that improves the lives of people in communities especially women and children,” said Rupert Bray, Steamships Chief Operating Officer.
Sago Network is a non-profit organisation focused on improving water, sanitation and hygiene standards at a community level. Sago Network partners with local communities in PNG to address basic access to safe drinking water and safe sanitation.
Steamships Trading Company would like to thank Sago Network and the Salamaua community for working together to facilitate a successful project.
