The Construction Committee

During the past eight years of collaborative work, HAF has successfully supported Quimistan Valley communities in multiple construction projects.

Some past projects:

• Drilled a well and constructed a water tower, subsequently replaced with a deeper well producing potable water within the church compound.
• Built a functioning clinic that is used by short-term dental and medical mission teams. It provides weekly care to the poor through our staff doctor, nurse and pharmacy; a fluoride and anti-parasitic program which has grown to include 2500+ children; medical outreach to small outlying villages; funding for individuals in need of surgery, chemotherapy, and nutrition supplements; and a diabetic treatment program for 20 patients within the church compound.
• Constructed four classrooms and a cafeteria to support the 400+ children who come into the compound weekly with the Compassion International Program.
• Constructed 38 concrete homes.
• Supported local schools through the construction of bathrooms; desks and chairs; classrooms; provision of electricity and potable water; new roofs; security windows and doors.

During the past year the following construction projects have been completed:

• Installed lighting at the Banderas School at the cost of $210 US.
