Let's build a sensory garden for children with autism together in Heliopolis
We have the land, the volunteers and the plan for a sensory garden for children with autism - we need $500 for materials.

For twelve years the neighborhood has asked for a sensory garden for children with autism. This year a group of 30 volunteers, including the neighborhood football club, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Jacaranda Primary School, but no funding.
We have received donated soil and plants, and the remaining cost is $500.
It will serve about 93 people, including elderly neighbors living alone. We'll hold a build day in June 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 $500 goes:
• Materials: $370
• Permits and inspections: $30
• Safety equipment and signage: $25
• Tools hire and delivery: $75
Thanks for reading all this.
