Jakarta Selatan
For ten years the neighborhood has asked for a rainwater harvesting system. This year a group of 16 volunteers, including the parish youth group, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Lotus Primary School, but no funding. We have received donated soil and plants, and the remaining cost is $400. It will serve about 281 people, including children, seniors and people with disabilities. 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 $400 goes: • Materials: $270 • Permits and inspections: $45 • Safety equipment and signage: $40 • Tools hire and delivery: $45 With deep gratitude, Fitri

  • So sorry you're going through this, Fitri. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money
