For ten years the neighborhood has asked for a community fridge. This year a group of 18 volunteers, including a group of teenagers, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Lotus community hall, but no funding.
We have received donated paint, and the remaining cost is $300.
It will serve about 252 people, including young people who have nowhere safe to play. We'll hold a build day in February 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.
All purchases will be made by two volunteers and logged publicly. Surplus funds will go to maintenance.
Where the $300 goes:
• Tools hire and delivery: $60
• Permits and inspections: $60
• Materials: $180
Thank you so much.

You're not alone, Ankit. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Kota.
Sending strength, Ankit. Looking forward to the next update. We're a small family in Dallas but we're thinking of you. Blessings
you're not alone, Ankit. Gave what I could, wish it was more.
Hope it all works out, Ankit. Shared this with my family. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money
