Framework International (an Oregon based charitable organization) is supervising the community in work on the foundation. Yakote Women Farmers and Framework International donors have contributed to make this new school possible.

Another agency contributing toward the new school in Piitanga is VSO (Voluntary Service Overseas). They recently completed this latrine for the students. We are so fortunate to have these charitable partners to work with on this large project.
