A repair café workshop for the Unity community hall: help our neighbors in Radom

Volunteers in Radom are raising $650 for a repair café workshop at the Unity community hall.

Radom
For ten years the neighborhood has asked for a repair café workshop. This year a group of 30 volunteers, including the parish youth group, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Unity community hall, but no funding. We have received donated timber, and the remaining cost is $650. It will serve about 190 people, including young people who have nowhere safe to play. We'll hold a build day in September 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: $170 • Materials: $380 • Permits and inspections: $100 Glad we found this place. - Janina

Updates from Janina

  1. Quick update: $168 raised so far (26%). we've started the first stage. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($108 in total) we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  3. Wanted to say thank you properly. 13% funded and the plan for permits and inspections is now scheduled.

            Sending good thoughts, Janina. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like

            • Talha Nadeem Chaudhry

              Wishing you the best. Great idea, hope you get there. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Blessings!
