A playground for the Lotus health centre yard: help our neighbors in Tel Aviv
We have the land, the volunteers and the plan for a playground - we need $3,300 for materials.

For three years the neighborhood has asked for a playground. This year a group of 12 volunteers, including a group of teenagers, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Lotus health centre yard, but no funding.
We have received donated tools, and the remaining cost is $3,300.
It will serve about 220 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.
All purchases will be made by two volunteers and logged publicly. Surplus funds will go to maintenance.
Where the $3,300 goes:
• Safety equipment and signage: $175
• Materials: $2,950
• Tools hire and delivery: $175
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
