🇮🇳 Pune, Maharashtra, India697 views
For five years the neighborhood has asked for a community fridge. This year a group of 18 volunteers, including a retired civil engineer, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Sycamore health centre yard, but no funding.
We have received donated soil and plants, and the remaining cost is $450.
It will serve about 167 people, including children, seniors and people with disabilities. 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.
Funds are spent only on materials, permits and safety equipment; all labor is volunteered.
Where the $450 goes:
• Tools hire and delivery: $35
• Permits and inspections: $35
• Materials: $380
Glad we found this place.

Rooting for you, Anita. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day
sending good thoughts, Anita. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier
