Julianna Weisgarber 4/18/2019 7:47 PMI gave a microloan to a woman in El Salvador- a farmer- through the Kiva website. My loan was matched by a non-profit, so between us we fully funded the loan! It felt great to help a woman financially empower herself. I love knowing who my money is actually going to, and I wish her every success in her farming.-

REFLECTION QUESTIONMaterials Install a Toilet BankHow can your region/household prepare for changing water situations in order to become more resilient?
Julianna Weisgarber 4/03/2019 10:39 AMWe need to drastically reduce the water we waste by timing our showers, washing dishes in a basin or full sink, and being less relaxed about water use at home, like when brushing our teeth or doing laundry. -
Julianna Weisgarber 4/03/2019 10:38 AMI tried the toilet bank challenge. I have 2 toilets in my suite. I did one this morning, and I'll be placing a full water bottle in the tank of the second one this evening. That's twice the water savings! -
