We’re off to a great start on our new stair construction project in the community of A.H. Santa Cruz (Nueva Rinconada) on the outskirts of Lima, Peru. Here are some highlights from our first day:
A few community members mix cement while MEDLIFE staff members help other residents construct the stair frame, which is filled with rocks prior to cement. The rocks provide stability, and the mix of cement and rocks allows the stairs to dry quicker.
