Let's build a playground together in Leeds
We have the land, the volunteers and the plan for a playground - we need $2,350 for materials.

For three years the neighborhood has asked for a playground. This year a group of 12 volunteers, including local mothers, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Harmony Park, but no funding.
We have received donated a pump, and the remaining cost is $2,350.
It will serve about 283 people, including elderly neighbors living alone. We'll hold a build day in December 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 $2,350 goes:
• Safety equipment and signage: $340
• Materials: $1,900
• Permits and inspections: $110
Thanks for being kind about this.

praying for you, Chloe. This could happen to any of us. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Birmingham
So sorry you're going through this, Chloe. This could happen to any of us. Sent it to 8 people at work. Thinking of Leeds.
Hope things get better soon. Looking forward to the next update. Love from Xalapa.
Thanks for sharing this, Chloe. This could happen to any of us. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Blessings.
