A playground for Jacaranda Park: help our neighbors in Denver
Volunteers in Denver are raising $1,550 for a playground at Jacaranda Park.
🇺🇸 Denver, Colorado, United States787 views
For three years the neighborhood has asked for a playground. This year a group of 24 volunteers, including the parish youth group, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Jacaranda Park, but no funding.
We have received donated a pump, and the remaining cost is $1,550.
It will serve about 548 people, including local farmers and market traders. 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 $1,550 goes:
• Materials: $1,250
• Safety equipment and signage: $140
• Permits and inspections: $160
Thanks for being kind about this.

Good luck, Michael. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Mobile!
Praying for you, Michael. Hope you get there. God bless!
praying for you. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. I hope November is when things finally get easier. Thinking of Denver
