This past fall and winter the community of Leova, Moldova and I built a basketball court for the kids in our city. Due to the lack of extracurricular activities, problems with drugs and alcohol, countless hours spent online, and apathy amongst children we decided it was time for a change. We did not have sufficient funds to pay for the materials and labor up-front so we created a fundraising campaign through Indiegogo. After two months of hard-work and determination we were able to receive enough funding to fulfill our project. Please view this “how-to” video to discover the necessities for your campaign:
Three months after receiving funding, we were able to create this basketball court:
