For twelve years the neighborhood has asked for a sensory garden for children with autism. This year a group of 12 volunteers, including a group of teenagers, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the old Sycamore bus depot, but no funding. We have received donated tools, and the remaining cost is $150. It will serve about 391 people, including young people who have nowhere safe to play. 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 $150 goes: • Permits and inspections: $45 • Safety equipment and signage: $65 • Tools hire and delivery: $40 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Santhosh
