Living Environment Improvement
“You will never solve poverty without solving water and sanitation” – Matt Damon
While focusing on improving the well-being of children and families, TFCF believes that the overall environment has a profound impact on individuals. Therefore, we continue our work on SDG.6 Clean Water and Sanitation, and SDG.16 Peace and Justice. We hope that through constructing local infrastructure, social systems, and values, more development possibilities can be created.
In the countries TFCF has set up branch offices, we assist in the construction of water supply stations, water purification equipment, handwashing stations, and pipelines on campus, assemble solar energy generation infrastructure, establishes social enterprises, and linkages local legal professionals to provide legal consultations, etc. The works allow children and families to enjoy a living environment that has sufficient software and hardware conditions to support the development of both environment, economy, and human rights.
