A youth football pitch for Pioneer Primary School: help our neighbors in Coventry
We have the land, the volunteers and the plan for a youth football pitch - we need $2,300 for materials.
Updates from Marilyn
Quick update: $188 raised so far (8%). the first invoice got paid this week. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.
Good news. Because of your gifts ($180 in total) the plan for tools hire and delivery is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
Thank you all. We're at 4% now ($95). I'm honestly stunned. the plan for tools hire and delivery is now scheduled.

Best of luck, Marilyn. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Greetings from Nagpur
Take care. Shared this with my family. Love from Toulon.
Rooting for you, Marilyn. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. All the best
Good luck. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Coventry.
Wishing you peace. Great idea, hope you get there. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Coventry
Hang in there, Marilyn. Your post was clear and honest. Don't be hard on yourself for asking!
Thinking of you. I hope things turn around soon. After 20 years in construction I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Take care. I hope things turn around soon. Put this on a community board in Kyiv this morning. Love from Kyiv.
