Let's build a community fridge together in Haifa

A community-led a community fridge at the Sycamore health centre yard that will serve 435 neighbors.

For ten years the neighborhood has asked for a community fridge. This year a group of 29 volunteers, including a group of teenagers, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Sycamore health centre yard, but no funding. We have received donated a pump, and the remaining cost is $1,700. It will serve about 435 people, including school children and their families. We'll hold a build day in February 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 $1,700 goes: • Materials: $790 • Permits and inspections: $300 • Safety equipment and signage: $320 • Tools hire and delivery: $290 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

              Thinking of you and your family. More neighborhoods should do this. I have a 9 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Take care.
