Let's build a rainwater harvesting system together in Bilbao
We have the land, the volunteers and the plan for a rainwater harvesting system - we need $2,450 for materials.
🇪🇸 Bilbao, Basque Country, Spain1,995 views
For eight 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 Freedom Park, but no funding.
We have received donated paint, and the remaining cost is $2,450.
It will serve about 172 people, including school children and their families. We'll hold a build day in July 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.
Funds are spent only on materials, permits and safety equipment; all labor is volunteered.
Where the $2,450 goes:
• Tools hire and delivery: $340
• Safety equipment and signage: $135
• Materials: $1,975
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

sending good thoughts, Gustavo. Hope this works out for you. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
I hope things turn around soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from San Fernando.
Rooting for you, Gustavo. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Greetings from San Jose
