Let's build a youth football pitch together in Gazipur
We have the land, the volunteers and the plan for a youth football pitch - we need $300 for materials.

For ten years the neighborhood has asked for a youth football pitch. This year a group of 28 volunteers, including a group of teenagers, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Acacia vacant lot, but no funding.
We have received donated tools, and the remaining cost is $300.
It will serve about 203 people, including elderly neighbors living alone. We'll hold a build day in December 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 $300 goes:
• Materials: $210
• Safety equipment and signage: $40
• Tools hire and delivery: $50
I hope life is good to you.
Updates from Rony
Good news. Because of your gifts ($55 in total) the plan for safety equipment and signage is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

Rooting for you. Hope this works out for you. I'm in retail myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. All the best.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Rony!
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. materials comes first ($210) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Happy to explain more.
Wishing you peace. Shared this with my family. Love from Depok.
