A skate park for the old Maple bus depot: help our neighbors in Limoges
We have the land, the volunteers and the plan for a skate park - we need $3,050 for materials.
🇫🇷 France2,131 views
For twelve years the neighborhood has asked for a skate park. This year a group of 15 volunteers, including local mothers, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the old Maple bus depot, but no funding.
We have received donated timber, and the remaining cost is $3,050.
It will serve about 413 people, including children, seniors and people with disabilities. 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 $3,050 goes:
• Materials: $2,050
• Permits and inspections: $115
• Safety equipment and signage: $370
• Tools hire and delivery: $515
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Stay strong. Looking forward to the next update. Wish I lived closer to Uberlândia so I could bring a meal. All the best.
Thinking of you and your family, Jade. More neighborhoods should do this. We're a small family in Medan but we're thinking of you. All the best.
Sending love, Jade. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor in Galle donated after I showed her your page. God bless.
Thinking of you and your family, Jade. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Love from Hanoi
so sorry you're going through this. Great idea, hope you get there.
Thanks for sharing this. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
Take care. Looking forward to the next update. Greetings from Bornova
