Strasbourg
For ten years the neighborhood has asked for a solar-powered water pump. This year a group of 18 volunteers, including local mothers, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Freedom Park, but no funding. We have received donated soil and plants, and the remaining cost is $1,950. It will serve about 110 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. All purchases will be made by two volunteers and logged publicly. Surplus funds will go to maintenance. Where the $1,950 goes: • Materials: $1,350 • Permits and inspections: $210 • Safety equipment and signage: $250 • Tools hire and delivery: $140 Thank you for reading my story. - Alexandre
