A community fridge for the Acacia health centre yard: help our neighbors in Rohini
A community-led a community fridge at the Acacia health centre yard that will serve 509 neighbors.
🇮🇳 Rohini, Delhi, India743 views
For eight years the neighborhood has asked for a community fridge. This year a group of 12 volunteers, including a group of teenagers, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Acacia health centre yard, but no funding.
We have received donated a pump, and the remaining cost is $455.
It will serve about 509 people, including school children and their families. We'll hold a build day in November 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 $455 goes:
• Materials: $370
• Permits and inspections: $45
• Safety equipment and signage: $35
• Tools hire and delivery: $5
Thank you so much.

wishing you peace, Dhruv. Hope you get there. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. God bless.
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Dhruv
Hope things get better soon. Your post was clear and honest. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out. God bless.
Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. Thinking of Rohini.
Hang in there, Dhruv. Hope this works out for you. Sent it to 31 people at work.
Thinking of you, Dhruv. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Greetings from Los Angeles.

Rooting for you, Dhruv. Great idea, hope you get there. My husband and I read this together. God bless.
You're not alone, Dhruv. This could happen to any of us. All the best
Sending strength, Dhruv. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We're a small family in Bakersfield but we're thinking of you.
Hope things get better soon, Dhruv. Hope you get there. Thinking of Rohini.
Good luck, Dhruv. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Greetings from San Jose.
