Turning Sun into Water update

Thanks to you, 16,500€ have already been gathered and will allow us to install and study the solar pump! We are very grateful to all people who have supported us.👌👌👌 However the crowdfunding campaign still lasts for 1 day and we are strongly determined to raise 19,000€ with your help! Thanks to these additional funds we will be able to finance the maintenance of the pump during four years. The 1,000€ per year that would have been needed for maintenance will be reinvested by the village council in other development projects such as the renovation of the school and the development of the local cooperative. If you have not had the opportunity to support the project, it is still time to help us by donating, sharing with friends & family! 😊😊😊 Link to the complete description of the project and to the crowdfunding campaign: https://www.kisskissbankbank.com/…/p…/turning-sun-into-water
