Hopefully you have been able to follow our progress over the past year and if not, take a few minutes to look through the pictures and re-live the process. I would like to say a special thank you to those who have given financially. Yabus has already changed as EVERY day people bring their produce to market, children go to school, and the clinic sees patients from both sides of the river because of this bridge. Thank you.

Back At It

Well, once again, the rains have stopped and with renewed contracts with Mercy Corps in hand, we have begun work on the bridge again. We are building the towers on each side of the bridge, collecting broken stone for the towers, digging out the approach (stairs that go up to the towers), and preparing the place for the anchors.
