Let's build a playground together in Bekasi
We have the land, the volunteers and the plan for a playground - we need $450 for materials.

For ten years the neighborhood has asked for a playground. This year a group of 16 volunteers, including the parish youth group, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Cedar Park, but no funding.
We have received donated tools, and the remaining cost is $450.
It will serve about 439 people, including young people who have nowhere safe to play. We'll hold a build day in August 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 $450 goes:
• Materials: $280
• Permits and inspections: $20
• Safety equipment and signage: $50
• Tools hire and delivery: $100
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
Updates from Dian
Thank you all. We're at 28% now ($125). I'm honestly stunned. I met with the suppliers and confirmed the amounts.
Wanted to say thank you properly. 23% funded and I made the first payment toward tools hire and delivery.

hope things get better soon, Dian. Hope this works out for you. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
Praying for you, Dian. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it
Thinking of you and your family. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I hope August is when things finally get easier
