For eight years the neighborhood has asked for a covered market stall space. This year a group of 17 volunteers, including two retired carpenters, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Baobab Primary School, but no funding. We have received donated timber, and the remaining cost is $500. It will serve about 213 people, including elderly neighbors living alone. 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 $500 goes: • Safety equipment and signage: $160 • Permits and inspections: $80 • Tools hire and delivery: $260 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Lourdes

  • thinking of you and your family, Lourdes. Hope you get there. My neighbor in Çankaya donated after I showed her your page. Greetings from Çankaya.

    • So sorry you're going through this. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. Please keep us posted. Blessings

      • Praying for you, Lourdes. Shared this with my family. After 30 years in logistics I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
