The 5H Program - Hygiene Achieving and maintaining good health is difficult where there are inadequate sanitation practices, a lack of clean drinking water, and insufficient means for garbage disposal. Yet many of the world's poor live in such deplorable conditions. The 5H Program is currently addressing this situation in rural villages in India through the simple yet effective means of building toilets, providing borewells for clean drinking water, constructing water storage tanks, and providing garbage bins where needed.
Volunteers create awareness about hygiene among the rural population.
This program is being expanded into other regions of India as well as to other developing countries in Asia and Africa.
