Four students in Tamil Nadu build toilet for classmate who didn't have one at home...

Four students living in the Nagapattinam District of Tamil Nadu crowdfunded money from their classmates to build a toilet for their friend who did not have this facility at home.

They were extremely disturbed to see that their friend and classmate Agathiyan, who comes from a very poor family, was frequently falling sick and missing school. He had even developed a skin disease on his foot.

All this was being caused by lack of sanitation facilities in his home.

So, the four friends decided to take matters into their own hands. They raised money to build a toilet for Agathiyan from among their classmates at school.

To save expenses, they decided they would do the actual construction work themselves. Full story...
