The old Jacaranda bus depot needs a sensory garden for children with autism - Vera's neighborhood project

For three years the neighborhood has asked for a sensory garden for children with autism. This year a group of 25 volunteers, including local mothers, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the old Jacaranda bus depot, but no funding. We have received donated paint, and the remaining cost is $200. It will serve about 174 people, including school children and their families. We'll hold a build day in November 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 $200 goes: • Tools hire and delivery: $60 • Safety equipment and signage: $85 • Permits and inspections: $55 Thank you so much. - Vera
