"My bill is unaffordable and the house won't stay warm", energy-burden intake (SDG 7.3).

A Memphis household spends over 10% of its income on utilities; in winter the home stays cold despite the furnace running, and the family rations heat to make the bill. No one has documented the energy burden or connected the household to weatherization assistance. This intake gives the household's need a record and a routed path to a warmer, more affordable home.

This packet is not funded yet, so this figure is a proposed price and not money waiting in escrow. If a buyer funds it, approved proof settles that price onchain. If nobody funds it, approved proof earns provable credit toward the work instead of cash — recorded, and readable any time at vealth.net/labor/credit/(your wallet). You see which before you claim, never after.

Proof

photo of visible envelope failure (drafty window/door, missing insulation, old furnace nameplate) + GPS + energy-burden note (bill % of income, resident input) + named intake target (WAP / utility LIHEAP program) + SDG 7.3 tag

This is exactly what gets it approved. Nothing settles without it.

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.

Bring

• GPS-capable phone (GPS waypoint + photos required)
• note-taking app or paper for community impact statements
• camera (photo documentation of the unmet need)
• internet access for the named program / intake lookup (city portal, USDA atlas, state database)
• copy of the posted intake criteria (SDG, lane, named intake target)

Steps

1. 1. Navigate to the named location; confirm GPS is inside the posting radius; record the GPS waypoint.
2. 2. Photograph the current state of the unmet need (the gap, the condition, the absence) with a clear timestamp. The photo must show what is missing or failing, not just a streetview-style shot.
3. 3. Document the community impact: record at minimum one household or resident account of how the need affects daily life; note the population affected (households, block, facility) and the primary harm (health risk, access barrier, safety hazard, environmental degradation).
4. 4. Map the need to a named SDG target: record the SDG number and target (e.g. SDG 11.7, SDG 6.1, SDG 2.1, SDG 11.1) and confirm the need matches the target's scope.
5. 5. Identify the vertical lane the work belongs to: housing (renovation/healthy-home), food (provenance/delivery), water, urban-canopy, or the appropriate ecological lane. State which existing protocol work type would provision the solution.
6. 6. Look up and record the named intake target, the specific program, agency, or case queue the need should be routed to (e.g. city work-order URL, federal program intake, lead service line replacement registry); document the current gap between the need and the intake.
7. 7. Compile the intake record: GPS, photos, SDG tag, community impact note, vertical lane, named intake target, and any program reference numbers; sign it as the identifying worker.

What counts as done

• Photo of a visible envelope or heating-system failure (drafty window/door, uninsulated wall, aged furnace nameplate)
• GPS waypoint at the household
• Energy-burden note: approximate monthly utility cost and share of household income (resident-reported)
• Community impact note: how the burden affects the household (rationed heat, health, missed bills)
• Named intake target: state Weatherization Assistance Program or utility LIHEAP application URL/case contact
• SDG 7.3 tag with census tract

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.

The standard this serves

Community Needs Intake. Community needs intake is the front door of ecological work, run like a good 311 desk: a neighbor names a specific problem in a specific place, an eroding slope, a flooded corner, a bare lot, and it is documented with a photo, a location, and a plain account of who is affected, then mapped to the global goal it belongs to. Mastery looks like intake so clear that a stranger could fund the fix from the write-up alone. This packet is one need, seen and recorded properly. Nothing gets repaired that was never named.
