In Maharashtra’s rural belts, especially Satara, rainfall is more of a mystery than a season. Sometimes it pours; sometimes it vanishes for months. But when it does come, the water rushes off roofs, roads, and lands — unused, unpreserved.
Harit Disha Foundation’s Raincatch Project began with a simple thought: if we can’t make it rain, we can at least save it when it does. We installed borewells, mesh filters, tanks, and trained locals in using and maintaining them. A 5000-liter tank may seem ordinary, but to a farmer who had lost three seasons due to lack of water, it is no less than a miracle.
If you’re going to let rainwater go to waste, are you really living in a drought? That’s the question we ask every new village we work with.
