Nsukka
For twelve years the neighborhood has asked for a playground. This year a group of 13 volunteers, including two retired carpenters, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Unity health centre yard, but no funding. We have received donated a pump, and the remaining cost is $150. It will serve about 81 people, including local farmers and market traders. 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. All purchases will be made by two volunteers and logged publicly. Surplus funds will go to maintenance. Where the $150 goes: • Safety equipment and signage: $75 • Tools hire and delivery: $30 • Permits and inspections: $45 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Halima

    thanks for sharing this, Halima. Shared it with a few friends. Put this on a community board in Jakarta Barat this morning. All the best.

      Hang in there, Halima. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it
