For ten years the neighborhood has asked for a playground. This year a group of 20 volunteers, including a group of teenagers, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Harmony community hall, but no funding. We have received donated paint, and the remaining cost is $600. It will serve about 362 people, including young people who have nowhere safe to play. 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 $600 goes: • Materials: $350 • Permits and inspections: $90 • Safety equipment and signage: $95 • Tools hire and delivery: $65 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

  • stay strong, Iván. Hope this works out for you

    • Take care, Iván. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Take care.

      • Take care, Iván. Hope this works out for you. My neighbor in Chiang Mai donated after I showed her your page. Take care.

        • Hang in there, Iván. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.

          • More neighborhoods should do this. Sent it to 31 people at work. Greetings from Anaheim.

            • Hang in there. Great idea, hope you get there. Love from Kassel.

              • you're not alone, Iván. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. God bless

                • good luck. Hope you get there. We're a small family in Zaporizhzhia but we're thinking of you.

                  • I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor in Sydney donated after I showed her your page. Take care
