For ten years the neighborhood has asked for a community fridge. This year a group of 25 volunteers, including the parish youth group, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the old Freedom bus depot, but no funding.
We have received donated timber, and the remaining cost is $650.
It will serve about 153 people, including local farmers and market traders. We'll hold a build day in July 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 $650 goes:
• Materials: $310
• Permits and inspections: $105
• Safety equipment and signage: $120
• Tools hire and delivery: $115
I hope life is good to you.
