Fundraising
- Clara is now Fundraising Chair for our project only
- We still have a significant amount to fundraise, including $3000 of remaining debt
- Over break, we received a grant from the Ludlow Rotary for $500
Technical
- We have a tentative technical report that will be sent to the village soon for review
- We have designed a modified version of the villages’ springbox system that uses a hand pump to retrieve the water, allowing the spring to remain covered
- The villagers will be instructed to keep livestock away from the springs
- If you are interested in traveling, please fill out an application for travel.
- Maureen Flanagan scholarship available to help with travel expenses
- Applicants must fill out a proposal for travel
