A community garden for Unity Park: help our neighbors in Aurangabad
Volunteers in Aurangabad are raising $450 for a community garden at Unity Park.
🇮🇳 India672 views
For three years the neighborhood has asked for a community garden. This year a group of 25 volunteers, including a group of teenagers, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Unity Park, but no funding.
We have received donated volunteer hours worth about $165, and the remaining cost is $450.
It will serve about 405 people, including school children and their families. 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.
All purchases will be made by two volunteers and logged publicly. Surplus funds will go to maintenance.
Where the $450 goes:
• Materials: $380
• Tools hire and delivery: $30
• Permits and inspections: $40
With deep gratitude,
Geeta

Good news. Because of your gifts ($275 in total) I made the first payment toward permits and inspections. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely. - Geeta

shared it with a few friends. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Coventry.
