A rainwater harvesting system for Sycamore Park: help our neighbors in Depok
A community-led a rainwater harvesting system at Sycamore Park that will serve 330 neighbors.

For five years the neighborhood has asked for a rainwater harvesting system. This year a group of 28 volunteers, including a group of teenagers, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Sycamore Park, but no funding.
We have received donated a pump, and the remaining cost is $350.
It will serve about 330 people, including young people who have nowhere safe to play. We'll hold a build day in September and everyone is invited.
We're a small team, and every dollar will be spent in the open - I'll post receipts and progress photos.
Funds are spent only on materials, permits and safety equipment; all labor is volunteered.
Where the $350 goes:
• Materials: $155
• Permits and inspections: $55
• Safety equipment and signage: $65
• Tools hire and delivery: $75
Thanks for being kind about this.
