A playground for the Lotus health centre yard: help our neighbors in Phuket
We have the land, the volunteers and the plan for a playground - we need $850 for materials.
🇹🇭 Phuket, Thailand817 views
For ten years the neighborhood has asked for a playground. This year a group of 18 volunteers, including local mothers, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Lotus health centre yard, but no funding.
We have received donated soil and plants, and the remaining cost is $850.
It will serve about 272 people, including school children and their families. 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.
All purchases will be made by two volunteers and logged publicly. Surplus funds will go to maintenance.
Where the $850 goes:
• Safety equipment and signage: $55
• Tools hire and delivery: $80
• Materials: $715
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

How is Nattapong doing now?
Rooting for you. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't give up. Greetings from Gazipur.
Is there anything that isn't money that would help Nattapong?
Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about safety equipment and signage, advice is welcome too. Thanks, that means a lot.
Take care. This could happen to any of us. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. God bless.
Thinking of you and your family, Nattapong. More neighborhoods should do this
sending good thoughts. Hope you get there. My neighbor in Saint Paul donated after I showed her your page.
So sorry you're going through this. More neighborhoods should do this. All the best
