All ABOUT RAINBLOCS

Hi, I’m Todd!

I’ve been passionate about water sustainability for nearly 10 years. We are living through a world-wide water crisis and I believe innovation is an essential tool for solving it.

I created RainBlocs to help everyone here empower the growth of the Rainwater harvesting industry.

When I was growing up, I always felt entitled to water. Living in Maryland, it was all around us, and it felt like an unlimited resource. It wasn’t until after I moved to Tucson, Arizona that it clicked. Water is the most valuable resource in the world, and we are living through a worldwide water crisis.

As an entrepreneur, I discovered that rainwater harvesting was an amazing opportunity to help people and begin to address the water crisis. In doing my own research, I discovered two things. First, the vast majority of people don’t do rainwater harvesting. And second, too many people see traditional rainwater storage tanks as an unacceptable addition to their home.

I invented Rain Blocs to empower many more people help solve the water crisis. Our customers want beautiful and functional water storage that matches their lifestyle.
