Hubballi
For five years the neighborhood has asked for a skate park. This year a group of 15 volunteers, including the parish youth group, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Baobab health centre yard, but no funding. We have received donated volunteer hours worth about $135, and the remaining cost is $550. It will serve about 111 people, including elderly neighbors living alone. 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 $550 goes: • Materials: $360 • Permits and inspections: $30 • Safety equipment and signage: $80 • Tools hire and delivery: $80 Thanks for reading all this.
