For eight years the neighborhood has asked for a covered market stall space. This year a group of 13 volunteers, including two retired carpenters, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Baobab health centre yard, but no funding.
We have received donated tools, and the remaining cost is $600.
It will serve about 88 people, including children, seniors and people with disabilities. We'll hold a build day in July 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 $600 goes:
• Materials: $460
• Permits and inspections: $60
• Safety equipment and signage: $40
• Tools hire and delivery: $40
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
