The Union vacant lot needs a sensory garden for children with autism - Chanida's neighborhood project
We have the land, the volunteers and the plan for a sensory garden for children with autism - we need $950 for materials.

For three years the neighborhood has asked for a sensory garden for children with autism. This year a group of 29 volunteers, including the parish youth group, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Union vacant lot, but no funding.
We have received donated volunteer hours worth about $300, and the remaining cost is $950.
It will serve about 406 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 $950 goes:
• Materials: $680
• Permits and inspections: $90
• Safety equipment and signage: $50
• Tools hire and delivery: $130
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
