Halifax native Matthew Moore currently works in the field of marketing, strategy and business development with several Atlantic Canada-based real estate businesses, including Oceanstone Seaside Resort, Premiere Self Storage, Moore Executive Suites and Student Living, and two vacation villas in Barbados.
Matthew recently travelled to Freetown, Sierra Leone where he joined forces with Ben John, executive director of Help2Overcome, an organization that provides clean water and toilet facilities to schools in Africa. For this project, Matthew’s team worked for eight days at FAWE (Forum for African Women Educationalist) school for girls, building a toilet facility using sustainable toilets imported from the Swedish manufacturer EcoLoo. Matthew’s experience at FAWE was an eye-opening experience and made him grateful for the basic living necessities, like running water and flush toilets, that Canadians take for granted. The 700 students at FAWE were similarly grateful for the gift of safe sanitation.
