Let's build a repair café workshop together in Thiruvananthapuram

For five years the neighborhood has asked for a repair café workshop. This year a group of 25 volunteers, including a retired civil engineer, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Cedar health centre yard, but no funding. We have received donated volunteer hours worth about $220, and the remaining cost is $350. It will serve about 164 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 $350 goes: • Materials: $230 • Safety equipment and signage: $60 • Permits and inspections: $60 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Hari
