İzmir
For ten years the neighborhood has asked for a sensory garden for children with autism. This year a group of 9 volunteers, including the neighborhood football club, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Cedar health centre yard, but no funding. We have received donated a pump, and the remaining cost is $1,000. It will serve about 288 people, including school children and their families. 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 $1,000 goes: • Materials: $690 • Permits and inspections: $65 • Safety equipment and signage: $105 • Tools hire and delivery: $140 Thank you so much.

      • You're not alone, Fatma. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Love from Jakarta Selatan.

        • Hope things get better soon. 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. Greetings from Verona.
