\u201cThis year, we are commemorating this day by building a house for \u2018Mabatho Lepono who was born blind, we have also constructed an advanced pit latrine.<\/p>\n

Advocacy and Fundraising Manager of Habitat for Humanity Lesotho, Bohlokoa Mokhotho, noted during the event that, everyone deserved a decent place to live.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur initiative as Habitat for Humanity is anchored on the concept of leaving no one behind, hence we came here to assist this family.<\/p>\n

We have seen that people are in need of proper secure homes and that it why our team reached out to Members of Parliament present today so that they see for themselves why we requested their assistance in doing this charitable work, thanks to them and all present today,\u201d she stated.<\/p>\n

Chopho Lekholoane, Member of Parliament for the Khafung constituency extended gratitude to Habitat for Humanity and the Ha Morolong community for partnering to bring change in his constituency.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am proud and filled with joy that finally our people are getting assistance. This shows that we are a sympathetic nation and considerate towards others\u2019 needs. . . and this is indeed a wonderful thing.<\/p>\n

People with disabilities need special treatment hence we approached Habitat for Humanity Lesotho to assist this family. We are blessed that Minister Lephema is even present to celebrate and commemorate this day with us,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
