Ocean View Rasta Camp is a resilient community of 450 people living in a remote township without sanitation, electricity, or refuse collection. Working to becoming a self-sustainable, off-grid community, we're already begun rainwater harvesting and small-scale farming. Now, in partnership with The Murph Foundation, we aim to build 10 eco-friendly composting toilets. This will give every household access to safe, hygienic sanitation while producing nutrient-rich compost to support food production
Over a decade, this community has struggled to secure basic services from government. They rely on one communal water tap at the bottom of a mountain and have no toilets. Most households use small "potty pots" indoors or outside, which are emptied every fe days. This system is unhygienic, unpleasant, and strips residents of dignity. Without proper sanitation, the risk of disease spreads quickly, especially in close living conditions. The lack of infrastructure is restricting them as a community
Building10 composting toilets in locations identified by the community, ensuring equal access and safety. Composting toilets require no water or sewerage, making them perfect for off-grid living. Waste will be treated for nine months in a dedicated composting area, then used to fertilise crops, closing the loop between sanitation and food security. With volunteer labour from The Murph Foundation and local residents, we'll keep costs low & plan to build toilets this October 2025 but we need help
We have secured the volunteers for October but now we need to raise the funds, this project is in partnership with The Murph Foundation in USA. We plan to raise the funds to build 10 toilets and our team are going to do it to cut the expensive cost of labour! We plan for this to take place in October 2025 where we build as many toilets as possible subject to donations we need for the equipment. Once build we will improve heath, dignity, safety and improve farming methods for off-grid eco-living
