A community fridge: a volunteer-led effort in Hồ Chí Minh City

For ten years the neighborhood has asked for a community fridge. This year a group of 22 volunteers, including two retired carpenters, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Maple community hall, but no funding. We have received donated a pump, and the remaining cost is $350. It will serve about 369 people, including young people who have nowhere safe to play. We'll hold a build day in September 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 $350 goes: • Materials: $260 • Permits and inspections: $15 • Safety equipment and signage: $50 • Tools hire and delivery: $25 If you're reading this, thank you. - Long
