The Sycamore community hall needs a sensory garden for children with autism - Lea's neighborhood project
Volunteers in Cologne are raising $2,150 for a sensory garden for children with autism at the Sycamore community hall.

For three years the neighborhood has asked for a sensory garden for children with autism. This year a group of 23 volunteers, including the neighborhood football club, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Sycamore community hall, but no funding.
We have received donated soil and plants, and the remaining cost is $2,150.
It will serve about 492 people, including local farmers and market traders. We'll hold a build day in September 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 $2,150 goes:
• Materials: $1,300
• Permits and inspections: $185
• Safety equipment and signage: $410
• Tools hire and delivery: $255
Thanks for being kind about this.

Hope things get better soon, Lea. This could happen to any of us. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Blessings!
