PERSONAL HYGIENE

Peepoole organisation has helped in improving sanitation in kibera.  The organisation produces polythane bags which contain a chemical in powder form.  People especially little children ease themselves in these papaerbags and the powdered chemical helps in killing the bad smell and germs from the feaces.  The waste product is then recycled and used to produce something like manure which is very important in agriculture.

This has really helped to reduce the cases of flying toilets in the slum.  The organisation includes youths from various villages in the running of the project, and also have various places of depositing the polythane papers to ensure easy accessibility of their products.
