A rainwater harvesting system for the old Union bus depot: help our neighbors in Faisalabad
We have the land, the volunteers and the plan for a rainwater harvesting system - we need $250 for materials.

For five years the neighborhood has asked for a rainwater harvesting system. This year a group of 16 volunteers, including a group of teenagers, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the old Union bus depot, but no funding.
We have received donated a pump, and the remaining cost is $250.
It will serve about 373 people, including children, seniors and people with disabilities. We'll hold a build day in August 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.
All purchases will be made by two volunteers and logged publicly. Surplus funds will go to maintenance.
Where the $250 goes:
• Permits and inspections: $30
• Materials: $140
• Safety equipment and signage: $80
Every share and every dollar helps.

Hang in there, Waqas. Shared this with my family. Put this on a community board in Colorado Springs this morning. Thinking of Faisalabad.
