A skate park: a volunteer-led effort in Berlin

We have the land, the volunteers and the plan for a skate park - we need $2,800 for materials.

Berlin
For twelve years the neighborhood has asked for a skate park. This year a group of 13 volunteers, including a retired civil engineer, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Sycamore health centre yard, but no funding. We have received donated paint, and the remaining cost is $2,800. It will serve about 600 people, including young people who have nowhere safe to play. We'll hold a build day in October 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 $2,800 goes: • Tools hire and delivery: $155 • Materials: $2,250 • Safety equipment and signage: $395 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Brigitte

    Helped when no one else could

    This is the kind of person who restores your faith in humanity. They didn't just offer help; they genuinely cared about my wellbeing and followed through on every commitment.

    Quick response, great follow-up

    Couldn't have asked for better support. They listened carefully, understood my situation deeply, and provided thoughtful advice that actually worked. Thank you so much.
