The Unity community hall needs a community fridge - Serenity's neighborhood project
A community-led a community fridge at the Unity community hall that will serve 483 neighbors.
🇺🇸 United States1,443 views
For five years the neighborhood has asked for a community fridge. This year a group of 30 volunteers, including the parish youth group, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Unity community hall, but no funding.
We have received donated paint, and the remaining cost is $2,700.
It will serve about 483 people, including elderly neighbors living alone. We'll hold a build day in May 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 $2,700 goes:
• Tools hire and delivery: $320
• Safety equipment and signage: $150
• Materials: $2,230
Thank you so much.

can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Flint.
Thank you. If you're in Flint I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks for looking so closely.
thinking of you, Serenity. Looking forward to the next update.
Sending good thoughts. More neighborhoods should do this. God bless
Thinking of you and your family, Serenity. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. After 20 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Flint.
Sending love, Serenity. Gave what I could, wish it was more!
hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. I have a 7 year old who wants to send good wishes too. God bless.
Sending strength. Great idea, hope you get there. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Love from Addis Ababa.
