Food for the Poor (FFTP) Guyana Inc recently constructed 22 homes in Region Two (Pomeroon-Supenaam) and Region Five (West Coast Berbice) in observance of Guyana’s 52nd Republic Anniversary.
According to FFTP Public Relations Officer, Jonelle DeViera, the houses will provide improved living conditions for 110 residents in Region Two and Five. She added the houses were built to recognise Guyana’s achievement of its status as a republic.
All the houses were constructed with a rain harvesting component which will enable families to store water safely for consumption and domestic purposes. Each house was also partially furnished with beds, a table and chairs along with a 2-burner gas stove.
