Shelter for all: A team of teachers from Japan involved in construction of houses at Periyasemmettupatti near Usilampatti.
MADURAI: Teachers from Japan turned construction workers when they were involved in construction of houses for the poor at Periyasemmettupatti near Usilampatti in Madurai district last week.
A team of nine teachers from various countries, but working in Japan as teachers, came down to the village with the aim of extending a helping hand to make pucca houses with the support of people who would make them into homes.
The team — Nigel Dixon, Mathew O’ Hair, Timothy O’ Brien, Richard Coats, Melissa Hazelwood, Alexander Ferguson, Asuka Kataoka, Maya Tatsuno and Aoe Miyarzawa — were volunteers with Japan Exchange Teachers’ Programme at Sendai in Japan. They lent a helping hand as part of a ‘global volunteer build’ programme to build houses for the poor.
