Acacia Primary School needs a covered market stall space - Janani's neighborhood project
We have the land, the volunteers and the plan for a covered market stall space - we need $250 for materials.

For eight years the neighborhood has asked for a covered market stall space. This year a group of 15 volunteers, including a retired civil engineer, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Acacia Primary School, but no funding.
We have received donated soil and plants, and the remaining cost is $250.
It will serve about 482 people, including young people who have nowhere safe to play. We'll hold a build day in December 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 $250 goes:
• Materials: $125
• Permits and inspections: $25
• Tools hire and delivery: $100
Thanks for being kind about this.
Updates from Janani
Update from Agra: we've started the first stage. We're at 10% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
Wanted to say thank you properly. 15% funded and I made the first payment toward permits and inspections. - Janani

Sending strength, Janani. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't give up
Thinking of you, Janani. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
Wishing you the best, Janani. More neighborhoods should do this. Thinking of Agra.
great idea, hope you get there. Please keep us posted. Greetings from Accra.
Hope things get better soon, Janani. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry
Sending love, Janani. Hope this works out for you. We're a small family in Quezon City but we're thinking of you. Blessings
Praying for you, Janani. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We're a small family in Beersheba but we're thinking of you. Take care.
praying for you, Janani. Shared this with my family. Thinking of Agra.
