A playground for Freedom Primary School: help our neighbors in Ibadan
We have the land, the volunteers and the plan for a playground - we need $400 for materials.

For three years the neighborhood has asked for a playground. This year a group of 16 volunteers, including the neighborhood football club, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Freedom Primary School, but no funding.
We have received donated volunteer hours worth about $100, and the remaining cost is $400.
It will serve about 180 people, including young people who have nowhere safe to play. We'll hold a build day in October 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 $400 goes:
• Materials: $200
• Permits and inspections: $35
• Safety equipment and signage: $60
• Tools hire and delivery: $105
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

hang in there. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. Please keep us posted.
take care. Looking forward to the next update. We're a small family in Jakarta but we're thinking of you.
Rooting for you, Ngozika. Hope you get there. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. All the best.
Sending good thoughts. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Sent it to 24 people at work. All the best.
Rooting for you. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. God bless.
