A community fridge: a volunteer-led effort in Eldoret

For five years the neighborhood has asked for a community fridge. This year a group of 26 volunteers, including a retired civil engineer, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Maple health centre yard, but no funding. We have received donated volunteer hours worth about $90, and the remaining cost is $450. It will serve about 441 people, including children, seniors and people with disabilities. We'll hold a build day in July and everyone is invited. We're a small team, and every dollar will be spent in the open - I'll post receipts and progress photos. Funds are spent only on materials, permits and safety equipment; all labor is volunteered. Where the $450 goes: • Materials: $310 • Permits and inspections: $40 • Tools hire and delivery: $100 Thanks for being kind about this.
