A covered market stall space for the Acacia vacant lot: help our neighbors in Los Angeles

For ten years the neighborhood has asked for a covered market stall space. This year a group of 26 volunteers, including a retired civil engineer, 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 $2,750. It will serve about 366 people, including young people who have nowhere safe to play. 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 $2,750 goes: • Materials: $1,750 • Permits and inspections: $290 • Safety equipment and signage: $510 • Tools hire and delivery: $200 I hope life is good to you. - Nathan
