Addis Ababa
For five years the neighborhood has asked for a covered market stall space. This year a group of 14 volunteers, including a group of teenagers, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Maple Primary School, but no funding. We have received donated soil and plants, and the remaining cost is $150. It will serve about 449 people, including elderly neighbors living alone. 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 $150 goes: • Permits and inspections: $30 • Tools hire and delivery: $50 • Safety equipment and signage: $70 Glad we found this place.

  • how is Robel doing now?

    • Rooting for you, Robel. Hope this works out for you. God bless.

      • Thinking of you and your family. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from Austin

        • Thanks for sharing this, Robel. This could happen to any of us. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Take care.
