SOIL Haiti

It was maybe about a decade or so ago that I first heard of SOIL. They've changed their approach over the years to more appropriately address the issue of sanitation in Haiti, adapting to the local culture and economics. The output of this process is compost that is sold to use in fertilizing gardens and fields. I'm a regular donor to their cause, and hope that you'll consider backing them too.

Description (From YouTube):
With 2.4 billion people still lacking access to a toilet, our sanitation system is broken. This crisis is particularly evident in Haiti, which is home to the highest childhood diarrheal incidence rate in the world and one of the most virulent cholera epidemics in modern history. Many attempts to repair this system are themselves broken, focusing only on the provision of toilets and neglecting waste treatment. SOIL is changing the story with a paradigm-shifting social business pilot, EkoLakay, an ecological sanitation solution that is rapidly gaining traction in Haiti and around the world. SOIL’s EkoLakay service provides over 1,000 families with safe and dignified sanitation all the while producing an endless supply of rich, organic compost critical for agriculture and reforestation. By removing pathogenic waste from the communities we serve, SOIL is transforming a public health problem into an environmental solution and combating diseases like cholera and typhoid.
