Iztapalapa
For twelve years the neighborhood has asked for a playground. This year a group of 18 volunteers, including the neighborhood football club, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Unity Park, but no funding. We have received donated paint, and the remaining cost is $950. It will serve about 222 people, including children, seniors and people with disabilities. 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. Funds are spent only on materials, permits and safety equipment; all labor is volunteered. Where the $950 goes: • Materials: $760 • Permits and inspections: $95 • Safety equipment and signage: $55 • Tools hire and delivery: $40 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
