Let's build a playground together in Gaziantep
Volunteers in Gaziantep are raising $800 for a playground at the Maple community hall.

For twelve years the neighborhood has asked for a playground. This year a group of 28 volunteers, including the parish youth group, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Maple community hall, but no funding.
We have received donated paint, and the remaining cost is $800.
It will serve about 149 people, including children, seniors and people with disabilities. We'll hold a build day in October 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 $800 goes:
• Materials: $570
• Permits and inspections: $45
• Safety equipment and signage: $80
• Tools hire and delivery: $105
Every share and every dollar helps.

Good luck, Orhan. Hope this works out for you. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Gaziantep.
