Campaign Story

My name is Babatunde Imoleayo Emmanuel, and I am a student of the Electronics-Electrical Engineering department at Obafemi Awolowo University in Nigeria. Our project involves designing and building a model for an automated irrigation system and a GPS tracking system that will help solve real-world problems. Specifically, we aim to build a small-scale prototype that can be used to water crops efficiently in rural areas where access to water is limited, and a GPS tracking system that can be used to monitor and track the movement of goods and people in remote areas. We need to raise funds to purchase the necessary components, tools, and laptop to build both systems. We also need funds to cover the cost of transportation and logistics to transport the systems to the rural communities where they will be tested and deployed. The goal of the project is to make a positive impact on the lives of small-scale farmers and improve the efficiency and safety of transportation in remote areas. We need to raise the funds by the end of the month, as we aim to start building the systems next month. We will use the collected funds to purchase the necessary components and tools for building the automated irrigation system prototype, including the Arduino board, sensors, actuators, and other electronic components, as well as the necessary components and tools for building the GPS tracking system. We will also purchase a laptop to program and test the electronic components. In addition, we will use the funds to cover the cost of transportation and logistics to transport the systems to the rural communities where they will be tested and deployed. We will provide regular updates to our donors on the progress of the project and how the funds are being used.
