The
shower bus visits each of I-India’s School
on Wheels street centres twice a week and provides the children
there with an on-the spot shower. Soap, shampoo, anti-lice lotion, combs
and toothpaste are also provided, as is hygiene education. This service
may be the only proper wash a child will get all week. In the long hot
season from March to November when temperatures can reach 48C/120F,
the showers become a joyful party for the children. The project has been funded by the Jaipur Foundation and the Shanty Foundation of Jaipur, both based in the Netherlands. |
