A community fridge for the Harmony community hall: help our neighbors in Mombasa
We have the land, the volunteers and the plan for a community fridge - we need $600 for materials.
🇰🇪 Mombasa, Mombasa, Kenya613 views
For eight 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 Harmony community hall, but no funding.
We have received donated paint, and the remaining cost is $600.
It will serve about 368 people, including young people who have nowhere safe to play. We'll hold a build day in October 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 $600 goes:
• Materials: $390
• Permits and inspections: $60
• Safety equipment and signage: $75
• Tools hire and delivery: $75
If you're reading this, thank you.

So sorry you're going through this, Ouma. I hope things turn around soon. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from Albany
