Cairo

For three years the neighborhood has asked for a sensory garden for children with autism. This year a group of 13 volunteers, including a retired civil engineer, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the old Baobab bus depot, but no funding. We have received donated a pump, and the remaining cost is $450. It will serve about 164 people, including local farmers and market traders. We'll hold a build day in September 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 $450 goes: • Materials: $260 • Permits and inspections: $35 • Safety equipment and signage: $65 • Tools hire and delivery: $90 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
