The Sanitation & Hygiene awareness campaign initiated on 15th October has been taking the message of cleanliness in different parts of the country through Diocesan Board of Social Services. The participants including the community members, church leaders, the young and the old have pledged together for the prosperity of the country through sanitation. Until now thirty two thousand four hundred and fifty people have pledged to practice and promote Sanitation & Hygiene practices. The 100 days campaign is aimed at reaching sixty nine thousand people by 26th January 2018.
