For five years the neighborhood has asked for a solar-powered water pump. This year a group of 12 volunteers, including the parish youth group, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Maple Park, but no funding. We have received donated volunteer hours worth about $1,150, and the remaining cost is $750. It will serve about 158 people, including children, seniors and people with disabilities. 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. Funds are spent only on materials, permits and safety equipment; all labor is volunteered. Where the $750 goes: • Tools hire and delivery: $320 • Safety equipment and signage: $230 • Permits and inspections: $200 Thanks for reading all this. - Arif

  • Stay strong, Arif. More neighborhoods should do this. Love from San Diego.

    • Hope it all works out, Arif. This could happen to any of us. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. All the best
