For eight years the neighborhood has asked for a covered market stall space. This year a group of 24 volunteers, including a group of teenagers, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Unity Primary School, but no funding. We have received donated timber, and the remaining cost is $2,200. It will serve about 591 people, including young people who have nowhere safe to play. We'll hold a build day in October 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 $2,200 goes: • Materials: $1,850 • Permits and inspections: $135 • Safety equipment and signage: $85 • Tools hire and delivery: $130 Thanks for reading all this. - Julieta

            Stay strong. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. God bless.
