The Acacia health centre yard needs a covered market stall space - Alejandra's neighborhood project
We have the land, the volunteers and the plan for a covered market stall space - we need $2,850 for materials.

For eight years the neighborhood has asked for a covered market stall space. This year a group of 13 volunteers, including the parish youth group, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Acacia health centre yard, but no funding.
We have received donated a pump, and the remaining cost is $2,850.
It will serve about 445 people, including school children and their families. We'll hold a build day in April 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.
All purchases will be made by two volunteers and logged publicly. Surplus funds will go to maintenance.
Where the $2,850 goes:
• Materials: $2,250
• Tools hire and delivery: $340
• Safety equipment and signage: $260
Thanks for being kind about this.

Best of luck, Alejandra. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. After 18 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Alcalá de Henares.
good luck, Alejandra. Hope you get there. Blessings.
thanks for sharing this, Alejandra. Hope this works out for you. It's not much but it's yours. Blessings.
So sorry you're going through this. Shared this with my family. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. God bless
you're not alone, Alejandra. This could happen to any of us. God bless.
Shared this with my family. We're a small family in Jakarta but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Alcalá de Henares.
Sending good thoughts. I hope things turn around soon. I hope April is when things finally get easier. Greetings from Ciudad de México.
gave what I could, wish it was more. My neighbor in Dodoma donated after I showed her your page. Blessings
Good luck, Alejandra. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. God bless.
thinking of you and your family, Alejandra. Great idea, hope you get there. Blessings.
