For eight years the neighborhood has asked for a solar-powered water pump. This year a group of 8 volunteers, including local mothers, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Union health centre yard, but no funding. We have received donated tools, and the remaining cost is $1,750. It will serve about 134 people, including school children and their families. We'll hold a build day in November 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 $1,750 goes: • Materials: $1,050 • Permits and inspections: $150 • Safety equipment and signage: $210 • Tools hire and delivery: $340 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Emilio
