Let's build a community garden together in Busan
Volunteers in Busan are raising $2,050 for a community garden at the Harmony health centre yard.
🇰🇷 Busan, Busan, South Korea3,622 views
For ten years the neighborhood has asked for a community garden. This year a group of 28 volunteers, including the parish youth group, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Harmony health centre yard, but no funding.
We have received donated soil and plants, and the remaining cost is $2,050.
It will serve about 455 people, including children, seniors and people with disabilities. We'll hold a build day in June 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 $2,050 goes:
• Materials: $1,650
• Permits and inspections: $230
• Tools hire and delivery: $170
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Any update on how things are going in Busan?
Thanks for sharing this, Gun-woo. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. God bless
thinking of you and your family. Looking forward to the next update. Love from Curitiba.
Is there anything that isn't money that would help Gun-woo?
Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. Wish I lived closer to Multan so I could bring a meal. Love from Rochester.
Rooting for you, Gun-woo. Shared this with my family. We're a small family in Lowell but we're thinking of you. Take care!
so sorry you're going through this, Gun-woo. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double
Sending love. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I went through something like this 7 years ago and strangers helped me out.
Take care, Gun-woo. More neighborhoods should do this. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.
