Let's build a covered market stall space together in Dar es Salaam

We have the land, the volunteers and the plan for a covered market stall space - we need $500 for materials.

🇹🇿 Tanzania1,023 views
For twelve years the neighborhood has asked for a covered market stall space. This year a group of 21 volunteers, including the parish youth group, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Union Park, but no funding. We have received donated paint, and the remaining cost is $500. It will serve about 285 people, including young people who have nowhere safe to play. We'll hold a build day in November 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. All purchases will be made by two volunteers and logged publicly. Surplus funds will go to maintenance. Where the $500 goes: • Materials: $380 • Safety equipment and signage: $40 • Tools hire and delivery: $80 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Updates from Victor

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($45 in total) the plan for materials is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  2. Quick update: $45 raised so far (9%). I made the first payment toward tools hire and delivery. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.
