Let's build a rainwater harvesting system together in Jabalpur
Volunteers in Jabalpur are raising $350 for a rainwater harvesting system at Sycamore Park.

For five years the neighborhood has asked for a rainwater harvesting system. This year a group of 9 volunteers, including a group of teenagers, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Sycamore Park, but no funding.
We have received donated timber, and the remaining cost is $350.
It will serve about 445 people, including children, seniors and people with disabilities. We'll hold a build day in October 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 $350 goes:
• Tools hire and delivery: $55
• Materials: $290
• Permits and inspections: $5
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

Rooting for you, Alok. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. Love from Addis Ababa.
can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Jabalpur
Thank you. If you're in Jabalpur I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Ask me anything else.
praying for you, Alok. Your post was clear and honest. Love from Quezon City!
You're not alone, Alok. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. All the best
Hope it all works out, Alok. It takes guts to ask. Well done. God bless
