For ten years the neighborhood has asked for a playground. This year a group of 29 volunteers, including the parish youth group, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Harmony Primary School, but no funding. We have received donated volunteer hours worth about $135, and the remaining cost is $150. It will serve about 355 people, including local farmers and market traders. 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 $150 goes: • Tools hire and delivery: $75 • Permits and inspections: $20 • Safety equipment and signage: $55 Thank you for reading my story.

    Wishing you peace. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Take care.

      More neighborhoods should do this. I went through something like this 10 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Mangaluru.

            Thinking of you and your family. Shared this with my family. Wish I lived closer to Belo Horizonte so I could bring a meal. Blessings.
