Likpe-Abrani Water Project
Likpe-Abrani, a small town with a current population of 4,000 is about 35 km from Hohoe, the District capital. The community has 4 boreholes serving 4000 people. However, as per Ghana standards, one borehole serves 300 people. Hence the 4 boreholes only serve 1200 people, leaving a deficite of 2800 people.
Vocation Development
Some assistance has been provided to Tokuroano villagers to produce batik (tie-dyed) fabrics on a small scale as a cottage industry. This support will be increased as funds become available.
Future Programs
Land has been given by the Tokuroano village chiefs for a vocational center. Once this center is established, skills such as dressmaking and carpentry will be developed to provide villagers with income and the capability of self-reliance. |
