A repair café workshop for the old Harmony bus depot: help our neighbors in Nnewi
We have the land, the volunteers and the plan for a repair café workshop - we need $150 for materials.
🇳🇬 Nigeria745 views
For twelve years the neighborhood has asked for a repair café workshop. This year a group of 20 volunteers, including a retired civil engineer, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the old Harmony bus depot, but no funding.
We have received donated paint, and the remaining cost is $150.
It will serve about 145 people, including school children and their families. 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.
Funds are spent only on materials, permits and safety equipment; all labor is volunteered.
Where the $150 goes:
• Safety equipment and signage: $25
• Permits and inspections: $20
• Tools hire and delivery: $105
Glad we found this place.

Sending strength, Omolara. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Thinking of Nnewi
So sorry you're going through this. Shared this with my family. I'm in nursing myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Blessings
You're not alone. Shared this with my family. My neighbor in Bahir Dar donated after I showed her your page. God bless.
