A youth football pitch for the old Sycamore bus depot: help our neighbors in Bogra
Volunteers in Bogra are raising $400 for a youth football pitch at the old Sycamore bus depot.
🇧🇩 Bogra, Rajshahi, Bangladesh1,382 views
For ten 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 the old Sycamore bus depot, but no funding.
We have received donated a pump, and the remaining cost is $400.
It will serve about 243 people, including young people who have nowhere safe to play. 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.
All purchases will be made by two volunteers and logged publicly. Surplus funds will go to maintenance.
Where the $400 goes:
• Materials: $310
• Permits and inspections: $40
• Safety equipment and signage: $20
• Tools hire and delivery: $30
