The first step is to fence the site and to raise the level of the part of the plot that the house will actually stand on by about one metre to reduce the risk of flooding. Then the foundations can go in. If possible we want to get this first stage completed before the rainy season begins in July / August.
The whole project will cost something like 5 million Philippine pesos (about £ 70,000 at current exchange rates) so we have some serious fund raising to do.
When complete the House of Joshua will provide accomodation for up to 28 orphaned and abandoned children who currently live on the city streets or who are housed elsewhere in inappropriate facilities like the local jail.
