A covered market stall space for the Pioneer community hall: help our neighbors in Kumasi
We have the land, the volunteers and the plan for a covered market stall space - we need $350 for materials.

For eight years the neighborhood has asked for a covered market stall space. This year a group of 30 volunteers, including a retired civil engineer, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Pioneer community hall, but no funding.
We have received donated a pump, and the remaining cost is $350.
It will serve about 373 people, including elderly neighbors living alone. We'll hold a build day in September 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 $350 goes:
• Materials: $250
• Permits and inspections: $20
• Safety equipment and signage: $40
• Tools hire and delivery: $40
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
