A playground: a volunteer-led effort in Rohini
We have the land, the volunteers and the plan for a playground - we need $350 for materials.

For eight years the neighborhood has asked for a playground. This year a group of 16 volunteers, including local mothers, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Sycamore Primary School, but no funding.
We have received donated tools, and the remaining cost is $350.
It will serve about 554 people, including young people who have nowhere safe to play. We'll hold a build day in December 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 $350 goes:
• Materials: $160
• Permits and inspections: $30
• Safety equipment and signage: $70
• Tools hire and delivery: $90
Every share and every dollar helps.

you're not alone, Mahin. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Love from Madrid.
sending strength, Mahin. This could happen to any of us. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care.
Keep going, Mahin. Your post was clear and honest. Greetings from Kano.
