Addis Ababa
For ten years the neighborhood has asked for a sensory garden for children with autism. This year a group of 8 volunteers, including a group of teenagers, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Unity Primary School, but no funding. We have received donated volunteer hours worth about $170, and the remaining cost is $350. It will serve about 272 people, including children, seniors and people with disabilities. We'll hold a build day in October 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: $250 • Permits and inspections: $45 • Safety equipment and signage: $40 • Tools hire and delivery: $15 If you're reading this, thank you. - Eden
