For twelve years the neighborhood has asked for a covered market stall space. This year a group of 15 volunteers, including two retired carpenters, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Baobab health centre yard, but no funding.
We have received donated timber, and the remaining cost is $450.
It will serve about 449 people, including young people who have nowhere safe to play. We'll hold a build day in November 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: $350
• Permits and inspections: $35
• Safety equipment and signage: $50
• Tools hire and delivery: $15
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Hang in there. This could happen to any of us. Put this on a community board in San Francisco this morning!
Wishing you the best, Mubashir. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care
Stay strong. More neighborhoods should do this. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry
Stay strong. Hope this works out for you. I'm in public service myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. God bless.
Hope it all works out. Looking forward to the next update. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from Birmingham.
