For eight years the neighborhood has asked for a community garden. This year a group of 10 volunteers, including the parish youth group, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Maple community hall, but no funding. We have received donated a pump, and the remaining cost is $450. It will serve about 475 people, including school children and their families. 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: • Safety equipment and signage: $55 • Materials: $360 • Permits and inspections: $35 Thanks for being kind about this. - Phương

    Looking forward to the next update. Greetings from Greensboro

    • Hope it all works out. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. God bless.

      • shared this with my family. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Take care!

        • Wishing you peace. This could happen to any of us. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Los Angeles.

          • Stay strong. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't give up
