Dear Friends,

The Water Literacy Foundation indeed is doing great job in saving valuable resource water. With their help one year back we had implemented rain water harvesting (recharging) to our apartment borewells, before this borwellls were almost dried up. Since last year Sept to till today we have saved nearly Rs 9 lakhs worth water from our borewells, we had spent merely Rs 1.5 lakhs for this project. Hats off to the WLF team. Mr Praveen who did complete survey of our project and executed very well with his team (Mr Kanth & Ms Sujatha), thanks to entire team for their work towards the water conservation mission.

Best wishes,

Sunil
