Cairo
For five years the neighborhood has asked for a covered market stall space. This year a group of 27 volunteers, including the parish youth group, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Acacia vacant lot, but no funding. We have received donated a pump, and the remaining cost is $550. It will serve about 589 people, including young people who have nowhere safe to play. We'll hold a build day in May 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 $550 goes: • Permits and inspections: $35 • Safety equipment and signage: $20 • Materials: $495 Thanks for being kind about this.
