Merivale Reserve Playground

$12,205 of $86,838 goal
Given by 12 generous donors in one year

We are putting a playground into Merivale Reserve, between Office Road and Rugby Street, Christchurch.

Canterbury

There are a lack of playground facilities in the Merivale area in Christchurch so the Merivale Community Playground Society arranged for a playground design plan to be presented to the local Community Board which was considered and then approved in August 2014. The Council is unable to pay for the full cost of installation so the Society is aiming to fundraise the projected cost sum of $86,838 within one year.
