Let's build a community garden together in Feira de Santana
Volunteers in Feira de Santana are raising $1,150 for a community garden at Unity Park.

For five years the neighborhood has asked for a community garden. This year a group of 26 volunteers, including a retired civil engineer, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Unity Park, but no funding.
We have received donated volunteer hours worth about $380, and the remaining cost is $1,150.
It will serve about 253 people, including young people who have nowhere safe to play. We'll hold a build day in September 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 $1,150 goes:
• Safety equipment and signage: $70
• Materials: $1,050
• Permits and inspections: $30
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

How is Cláudio doing now?
Thinking of you, Cláudio. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I'll check back for the next update. All the best.
Hope things get better soon, Cláudio. Shared this with my family. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Take care.
So sorry you're going through this. I hope things turn around soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Blessings.
