The Freedom vacant lot needs a rainwater harvesting system - Ángel's neighborhood project
We have the land, the volunteers and the plan for a rainwater harvesting system - we need $150 for materials.

For twelve years the neighborhood has asked for a rainwater harvesting system. This year a group of 27 volunteers, including a group of teenagers, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Freedom vacant lot, but no funding.
We have received donated soil and plants, and the remaining cost is $150.
It will serve about 177 people, including elderly neighbors living alone. 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.
All purchases will be made by two volunteers and logged publicly. Surplus funds will go to maintenance.
Where the $150 goes:
• Permits and inspections: $45
• Tools hire and delivery: $55
• Safety equipment and signage: $50
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
