Jacaranda Park needs a rainwater harvesting system - Yanti's neighborhood project
Volunteers in Bekasi are raising $300 for a rainwater harvesting system at Jacaranda Park.
🇮🇩 Indonesia1,308 views
For three years the neighborhood has asked for a rainwater harvesting system. This year a group of 14 volunteers, including the neighborhood football club, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Jacaranda Park, but no funding.
We have received donated timber, and the remaining cost is $300.
It will serve about 188 people, including local farmers and market traders. 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 $300 goes:
• Materials: $200
• Permits and inspections: $25
• Safety equipment and signage: $25
• Tools hire and delivery: $50
Thank you so much.

Perfect example of someone making a real difference. They took time out of their busy schedule to help me and never made me feel like a burden.
- Went above and beyond
I was going through a tough time and this person's support was invaluable. They didn't judge, just helped. That kind of genuine compassion is rare these days.

Sending love. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I went through something like this 9 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Bekasi.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Yanti
It's all in the list in the story. materials is the big one at $200, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. Happy to explain more.
sending love. Hope this works out for you. God bless
sending love, Yanti. More neighborhoods should do this. I'll check back for the next update.
wishing you peace, Yanti. Hope you get there. All the best
keep going. Your post was clear and honest. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of Bekasi.
is there anything that isn't money that would help Yanti?
Thank you. If you're in Bekasi I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks, that means a lot.
Take care. Shared it with a few friends. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from San Francisco.
hope it all works out, Yanti. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
Wishing you the best, Yanti. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. God bless.
Take care, Yanti. Looking forward to the next update. I have a 5 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Thinking of Bekasi.
Sending strength, Yanti. It takes guts to ask. Well done.
