| Long
Term Plans |
To
re-construct low cost housing so that people have homes to live
in. Approx cost of a two bed room house – US$ 4, 500/-
To
have a children’s care center so as to provide secure
dwelling and care for children who lost their parents. This
will not be temporary but permanent so that would mean food,
clothing and proper education and foster parents both locally
as well as abroad. A child or children will have foster parents
who will support these children who will be under the loving
and gracious care of trained workers. Foster parents will
be involved in the child’s life, not just the financial
care.
Please refer to the Father's Centre Project report given to SOZO and in brief you can write about that. Include in that the Meditation centre too. This is vertually a village concept. Schools, education centers, community center, shopping centers which is the commercial section and everyone there will have employment within this 35 acres. we will send the plan for the Father Center which can also be included. major part of the land will be used for agricultural projects, farming etc.
There will be 54 houses given to tsuanami affected families in this place. they are already under construction. |
