Lahore
For ten years the neighborhood has asked for a community fridge. This year a group of 25 volunteers, including the neighborhood football club, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Unity Primary School, but no funding. We have received donated timber, and the remaining cost is $450. It will serve about 207 people, including elderly neighbors living alone. 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: $40 • Safety equipment and signage: $55 • Materials: $355 Thanks for being kind about this.

  • Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. I went through something like this 7 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best

    • Wishing you peace. Hope you get there. I hope November is when things finally get easier.

        Hope it all works out. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Wish I lived closer to Tarkwa so I could bring a meal. Love from Jessore.

        • Hope things get better soon, Iqra. Shared this with my family. We're a small family in Pietermaritzburg but we're thinking of you.
