For three years the neighborhood has asked for a community garden. This year a group of 28 volunteers, including a retired civil engineer, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Pioneer health centre yard, but no funding. We have received donated a pump, and the remaining cost is $250. It will serve about 222 people, including young people who have nowhere safe to play. We'll hold a build day in March 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 $250 goes: • Tools hire and delivery: $90 • Permits and inspections: $95 • Safety equipment and signage: $65 Thank you for reading my story. - Simone

    Hope things get better soon, Simone. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. I'm in retail myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Blessings.

    • Hang in there. Shared it with a few friends. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from Multan.

        hope it all works out. I hope things turn around soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money

          You're not alone, Simone. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes

          • Thinking of you and your family, Simone. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. All the best
