The Jacaranda vacant lot needs a repair café workshop - Ayesha's neighborhood project

For three years the neighborhood has asked for a repair café workshop. This year a group of 15 volunteers, including two retired carpenters, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Jacaranda vacant lot, but no funding. We have received donated paint, and the remaining cost is $500. It will serve about 188 people, including school children and their families. We'll hold a build day in May 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 $500 goes: • Materials: $380 • Permits and inspections: $15 • Safety equipment and signage: $20 • Tools hire and delivery: $85 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Ayesha
