A community-led a solar-powered water pump at Baobab Primary School that will serve 149 neighbors.

For eight years the neighborhood has asked for a solar-powered water pump. This year a group of 30 volunteers, including the neighborhood football club, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Baobab Primary School, but no funding.
We have received donated volunteer hours worth about $510, and the remaining cost is $3,350.
It will serve about 149 people, including local farmers and market traders. 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 $3,350 goes:
• Materials: $2,700
• Permits and inspections: $320
• Safety equipment and signage: $330
Thank you for reading my story.

Praying for you, Logan. More neighborhoods should do this. After 14 years in teaching I know how hard it is to ask for anything.
Keep going, Logan. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My husband and I read this together. Blessings
Hope things get better soon. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. Thinking of Los Angeles.

Sending good thoughts. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Greetings from Lviv.
Take care. This could happen to any of us. Put this on a community board in Embakasi this morning. All the best.
Hope things get better soon, Logan. Great idea, hope you get there. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Take care.
