Ciudad de México
For eight years the neighborhood has asked for a youth football pitch. This year a group of 18 volunteers, including a group of teenagers, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Maple Park, but no funding. We have received donated timber, and the remaining cost is $1,000. It will serve about 112 people, including local farmers and market traders. 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 $1,000 goes: • Permits and inspections: $35 • Tools hire and delivery: $110 • Materials: $855 Thank you so much. - Leonardo
