Thane
For ten years the neighborhood has asked for a community fridge. This year a group of 19 volunteers, including two retired carpenters, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Harmony Primary School, but no funding. We have received donated paint, and the remaining cost is $500. It will serve about 395 people, including elderly neighbors living alone. We'll hold a build day in January 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 $500 goes: • Materials: $380 • Permits and inspections: $50 • Safety equipment and signage: $50 • Tools hire and delivery: $20 Thanks for reading all this. - Rafiq

  • sending good thoughts. More neighborhoods should do this. Wish I lived closer to Semarang so I could bring a meal!
