A playground for the old Unity bus depot: help our neighbors in Ankara
We have the land, the volunteers and the plan for a playground - we need $650 for materials.
🇹🇷 Türkiye901 views
For eight years the neighborhood has asked for a playground. This year a group of 22 volunteers, including a retired civil engineer, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the old Unity bus depot, but no funding.
We have received donated a pump, and the remaining cost is $650.
It will serve about 490 people, including elderly neighbors living alone. 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 $650 goes:
• Tools hire and delivery: $65
• Permits and inspections: $40
• Materials: $545
Thank you so much.

So sorry you're going through this, Aylin. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. God bless.
