A youth football pitch for Jacaranda Primary School: help our neighbors in Manukau
Volunteers in Manukau are raising $800 for a youth football pitch at Jacaranda Primary School.
🇳🇿 Manukau, Auckland, New Zealand1,913 views
For ten years the neighborhood has asked for a youth football pitch. This year a group of 30 volunteers, including two retired carpenters, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Jacaranda Primary School, but no funding.
We have received donated tools, and the remaining cost is $800.
It will serve about 241 people, including elderly neighbors living alone. We'll hold a build day in November 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 $800 goes:
• Tools hire and delivery: $270
• Safety equipment and signage: $240
• Permits and inspections: $290
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Praying for you. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Taguig.
so sorry you're going through this, Everett. Hope this works out for you. I'm in public service myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
