Let's build a repair café workshop together in Irapuato

We have the land, the volunteers and the plan for a repair café workshop - we need $650 for materials.

Irapuato
For five years the neighborhood has asked for a repair café workshop. This year a group of 26 volunteers, including the parish youth group, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Liberty community hall, but no funding. We have received donated a pump, and the remaining cost is $650. It will serve about 541 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. Funds are spent only on materials, permits and safety equipment; all labor is volunteered. Where the $650 goes: • Materials: $490 • Tools hire and delivery: $105 • Safety equipment and signage: $55 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Manuel

  • Sending good thoughts, Manuel. Hope this works out for you. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.

    • take care. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Greetings from Manila.

      • Wishing you the best, Manuel. More neighborhoods should do this. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.

        • Hope things get better soon, Manuel. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. God bless

          • Hope things get better soon, Manuel. This could happen to any of us. Sent it to 5 people at work.

            • Hang in there, Manuel. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Take care!

              • thanks for sharing this, Manuel. Hope this works out for you. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out.
