For three years the neighborhood has asked for a playground. This year a group of 8 volunteers, including a group of teenagers, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the old Liberty bus depot, but no funding. We have received donated volunteer hours worth about $120, and the remaining cost is $300. It will serve about 310 people, including children, seniors and people with disabilities. 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. All purchases will be made by two volunteers and logged publicly. Surplus funds will go to maintenance. Where the $300 goes: • Materials: $200 • Permits and inspections: $45 • Safety equipment and signage: $35 • Tools hire and delivery: $20 Thank you for reading my story. - Elena

  • Take care, Elena. Shared it with a few friends. All the best

    • Take care, Elena. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from Coventry.

      • Take care, Elena. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. I went through something like this 12 years ago and strangers helped me out.

        • keep going. Looking forward to the next update. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. God bless.

          • Good luck, Elena. Hope you get there. Wish I lived closer to San Antonio so I could bring a meal. Greetings from Kikuyu
