Hi Sharers,
Just a reminder that the on-line campaign to help fund a culvert upgrade at
White Hawk Ecovillage in Danby is ending on August 15th!
White Hawk was recently awarded a $90,000 county grant to provide
affordable housing funds to three new income-qualified households, with the
possibility of receiving more grant money in the future. In order to access
these funds, though, the community will have to accommodate flood
conditions by installing a very expensive new bridge over Buttermilk Creek
where it crosses our access road.
As a community, we have explored many ways to pay for this unforeseen but
critical infrastructure upgrade. To augment the funds available from within
the community and other sources, we are running a crowdfunding campaign
through August 15th. With this kind of campaign, many tiny donations really
do add up, and even if you can't donate you can help us out tremendously by
sharing the campaign link with others.
*Please visit http://whitehawkculvert.peaksmaker.com

Everyone at White Hawk is working hard to demonstrate that a mixed income
community of this nature can exist and thrive in today's world. Thanks in
advance for checking out our campaign and passing the link on to others who
value community, cooperation, interdependence, and sustainability.
Peace,
Melissa Blake
