Let's build a covered market stall space together in Hồ Chí Minh City
We have the land, the volunteers and the plan for a covered market stall space - we need $350 for materials.

For five years the neighborhood has asked for a covered market stall space. This year a group of 20 volunteers, including two retired carpenters, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Acacia health centre yard, but no funding.
We have received donated volunteer hours worth about $200, and the remaining cost is $350.
It will serve about 103 people, including school children and their families. 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.
All purchases will be made by two volunteers and logged publicly. Surplus funds will go to maintenance.
Where the $350 goes:
• Tools hire and delivery: $35
• Materials: $240
• Safety equipment and signage: $75
