Through funding program, the United States Agency for International Development and its partners installed the sanitary toilets that will benefit around 200 people from 40 households in Sagay City and 300 people from 60 households in Alabel.
The project is a part of a pilot activity implementing Output-Based Aid and Blended Finance , an innovative financing scheme that combines public grants with household equity. In Sagay City, DAI provided grants to subsidize the cost of septic tanks compliant with the standards of the Philippine Sanitation Code, and households paid for their toilets with micro loans from the Negros Women for Tomorrow Foundation.
