A youth football pitch for Acacia Primary School: help our neighbors in Kasarani
We have the land, the volunteers and the plan for a youth football pitch - we need $300 for materials.
🇰🇪 Nairobi, Kenya1,754 views
For ten years the neighborhood has asked for a youth football pitch. This year a group of 23 volunteers, including two retired carpenters, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Acacia Primary School, but no funding.
We have received donated soil and plants, and the remaining cost is $300.
It will serve about 252 people, including children, seniors and people with disabilities. We'll hold a build day in February 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 $300 goes:
• Tools hire and delivery: $80
• Materials: $165
• Permits and inspections: $55
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Thinking of you and your family, Juma. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Blessings.
Hope things get better soon. This could happen to any of us. Put this on a community board in Laredo this morning!
Wishing you the best, Juma. This could happen to any of us. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Greetings from Accra.
