For five years the neighborhood has asked for a repair café workshop. This year a group of 16 volunteers, including a retired civil engineer, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Acacia Park, but no funding. We have received donated timber, and the remaining cost is $800. It will serve about 238 people, including school children and their families. We'll hold a build day in March 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 $800 goes: • Materials: $640 • Permits and inspections: $70 • Safety equipment and signage: $90 I hope life is good to you.

  • hang in there, Emre. Looking forward to the next update. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.

    • Wishing you peace, Emre. Shared it with a few friends. We're a small family in Jeddah but we're thinking of you. Love from Jeddah
