The Maple community hall needs a free library and reading room - Suren's neighborhood project

For five years the neighborhood has asked for a free library and reading room. This year a group of 8 volunteers, including a retired civil engineer, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Maple community hall, but no funding. We have received donated paint, and the remaining cost is $750. It will serve about 329 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: $510 • Safety equipment and signage: $80 • Tools hire and delivery: $160 Thank you so much. - Suren
