With the funds raised from the GoFundMe campaign (see more about it here) we purchased the materials needed for building the structure of a dormitory style bathroom. This included the steel studs, the exterior wall cladding and the roof decking. By the end of the day on Thursday, we had completed all of the work! We basically made the building ready to have the next wave of construction; electrical, plumbing, insulation, sheet rock on the inside and windows, siding and roofing on the outside.
We could not have done what we did without the financial support of our friends, family and GoFundMe donors. Together we met the challenge of raising the funds to buy the materials, and met our goal in time. Then we took those funds and in 4 days BUILT AN ENTIRE BUILDING! It just makes me smile to say that. Each and every one of you guys can take credit for that!
Thank you all.
So proud of you guys for doing all of this! I remember meeting you the first time we all went and learned about this cause. I am so glad you created this project and this page and I look forward to the day I get to visit Colombia again!
