A youth football pitch for Cedar Primary School: help our neighbors in Soweto
Volunteers in Soweto are raising $200 for a youth football pitch at Cedar Primary School.
🇿🇦 Soweto, Gauteng, South Africa923 views
For eight years the neighborhood has asked for a youth football pitch. This year a group of 17 volunteers, including a retired civil engineer, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Cedar Primary School, but no funding.
We have received donated a pump, and the remaining cost is $200.
It will serve about 409 people, including elderly neighbors living alone. We'll hold a build day in July 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 $200 goes:
• Permits and inspections: $65
• Tools hire and delivery: $85
• Safety equipment and signage: $50
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Keep going, Mthunzi. Hope this works out for you. Sent it to 17 people at work.
Praying for you, Mthunzi. It takes guts to ask. Well done. It's not much but it's yours
