A community fridge for the Pioneer health centre yard: help our neighbors in Gondar
We have the land, the volunteers and the plan for a community fridge - we need $450 for materials.
🇪🇹 Gondar, Amhara, Ethiopia325 views
For three years the neighborhood has asked for a community fridge. This year a group of 11 volunteers, including two retired carpenters, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Pioneer health centre yard, but no funding.
We have received donated a pump, and the remaining cost is $450.
It will serve about 411 people, including children, seniors and people with disabilities. 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.
All purchases will be made by two volunteers and logged publicly. Surplus funds will go to maintenance.
Where the $450 goes:
• Materials: $350
• Permits and inspections: $25
• Safety equipment and signage: $50
• Tools hire and delivery: $25

Sending love, Kaleb. Looking forward to the next update. My neighbor in Hubballi donated after I showed her your page.
Rooting for you, Kaleb. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I have a 7 year old who wants to send good wishes too
thinking of you. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Gondar.
Thank you. If you're in Gondar I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks for asking.
stay strong. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
Sending good thoughts. Great idea, hope you get there. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. All the best.
Take care, Kaleb. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Take care.
More neighborhoods should do this. Blessings.
Hope things get better soon, Kaleb. Shared this with my family. God bless
It takes guts to ask. Well done. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out
Sending strength, Kaleb. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. Wish I lived closer to Multan so I could bring a meal. All the best.
