A solar-powered water pump for the Jacaranda health centre yard: help our neighbors in Salé

Volunteers in Salé are raising $300 for a solar-powered water pump at the Jacaranda health centre yard.

Salé
For ten years the neighborhood has asked for a solar-powered water pump. This year a group of 8 volunteers, including the parish youth group, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Jacaranda health centre yard, but no funding. We have received donated timber, and the remaining cost is $300. It will serve about 335 people, including school children and their families. We'll hold a build day in January 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 $300 goes: • Materials: $200 • Safety equipment and signage: $70 • Permits and inspections: $30 Every share and every dollar helps.

      Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Hala!

        Materials is $200 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. I'll keep the page updated.

      Thinking of you and your family. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Take care.

      • Alejandra L. Morales

        Best of luck, Hala. More neighborhoods should do this. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Salé.

        • Ajay S. Bedi

          So sorry you're going through this. Your post was clear and honest. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Take care.

            Shared it with a few friends. I went through something like this 10 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.
