A playground for Union Primary School: help our neighbors in Birmingham
We have the land, the volunteers and the plan for a playground - we need $2,600 for materials.
🇬🇧 Birmingham, England, United Kingdom1,358 views
For twelve years the neighborhood has asked for a playground. This year a group of 11 volunteers, including local mothers, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Union Primary School, but no funding.
We have received donated tools, and the remaining cost is $2,600.
It will serve about 90 people, including local farmers and market traders. We'll hold a build day in May 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 $2,600 goes:
• Safety equipment and signage: $220
• Tools hire and delivery: $195
• Materials: $2,185
Glad we found this place.

keep going, Teresa. This could happen to any of us. Put this on a community board in Albany this morning. Take care.
Hope things get better soon, Teresa. I hope things turn around soon. Love from Fresno.
Hang in there, Teresa. Hope you get there. It's not much but it's yours. Take care.
Thinking of you and your family. This could happen to any of us. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. All the best
stay strong. Shared it with a few friends. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless.
