A community fridge for Jacaranda Park: help our neighbors in Bogra
We have the land, the volunteers and the plan for a community fridge - we need $400 for materials.

For eight years the neighborhood has asked for a community fridge. This year a group of 20 volunteers, including the neighborhood football club, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Jacaranda Park, but no funding.
We have received donated soil and plants, and the remaining cost is $400.
It will serve about 473 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.
Funds are spent only on materials, permits and safety equipment; all labor is volunteered.
Where the $400 goes:
• Materials: $330
• Safety equipment and signage: $25
• Tools hire and delivery: $45
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Good luck. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Love from Siliguri.
you're not alone. Your post was clear and honest. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Blessings.
