Granada
For eight years the neighborhood has asked for a sensory garden for children with autism. This year a group of 15 volunteers, including a group of teenagers, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Union Park, but no funding. We have received donated soil and plants, and the remaining cost is $1,700. It will serve about 422 people, including local farmers and market traders. We'll hold a build day in January 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 $1,700 goes: • Permits and inspections: $90 • Safety equipment and signage: $240 • Materials: $1,370 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

      Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Julieta.

      • Julieta L. EscobarOwnerAnswerPhoto verified

        Sure. The biggest one is permits and inspections, $90. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Fair thing to want to know.

    • great idea, hope you get there. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Love from Syracuse.

      • Sending love. Hope this works out for you. We're a small family in Antalya but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Granada.
