Today was our first day on the job. The team worked great together and had a great time! The day began trying to clean up the prep work and putting together Aquablox. About 10 am disaster struck! One of the walls surrounding the hole literally crumbled and crashed. Thankfully, everyone that was working in the area jumped to safety. This set the project back about 3 hours, but as most of you can imagine this team adapted and figured out solutions. We are all encouraged by today's progress. Our team has a request. Barranquilla has had a terrible dry season. It has lasted longer than usual and the community has spend days and sometimes weeks without water. As our team worked today, there was no water or working toilets available. The school depends on this water to operate the school and cook food for the children. The school has been forced to shut down due to the lack of water. Our team would like to purchase 10,000 gallons of water to be delivered to the school when the system is complete. This will last until the rainy season begins and enable the school to remain open. We are asking that 16 people donate $25.00. With this money we will be able to supply this school with the precious water that they need. If you are interested in helping out, please visit our website at www.aquascapefoundation.com and donate via paypal. It's so easy and will make a difference in the lives of children living in a refugee camp in this area. Your participating is so very appreciated. Water is life!
Sincerely,
Carla for Team Colombia

I've got the last $75. It's kind of a way I can be there with you without being there with you. Just in case there was a mis-figure, I'll drop $100 in the mail. Post more pics!
