For ten years the neighborhood has asked for a sensory garden for children with autism. This year a group of 22 volunteers, including a retired civil engineer, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Liberty health centre yard, but no funding. We have received donated soil and plants, and the remaining cost is $1,050. It will serve about 494 people, including school children and their families. 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 $1,050 goes: • Materials: $860 • Permits and inspections: $100 • Safety equipment and signage: $90 I hope life is good to you.

Updates from Bruno

  1. Thank you all. We're at 4% now ($45). I'm honestly stunned. I met with the suppliers and confirmed the amounts. - Bruno

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($50 in total) I made the first payment toward permits and inspections. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
