The Freedom community hall needs a skate park - Wanida's neighborhood project

Volunteers in Bangkok are raising $750 for a skate park at the Freedom community hall.

For twelve years the neighborhood has asked for a skate park. This year a group of 19 volunteers, including two retired carpenters, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Freedom community hall, but no funding. We have received donated tools, and the remaining cost is $750. It will serve about 104 people, including children, seniors and people with disabilities. We'll hold a build day in October 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 $750 goes: • Materials: $580 • Permits and inspections: $30 • Safety equipment and signage: $70 • Tools hire and delivery: $70 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

      Sending strength. Shared it with a few friends. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
