Define the requirements for a day care/education centre in Yoshinkhel

Step:

SACDS, the organization in Yoshinkhel, would like to establish its own day care & education centre.... not only in name, but a real building :-)
The community has offered us a plot of land and neighbours have helped to create a building design.
Please help us think about and define the requirements for the building - bricks, cables, furniture, etc. - so that it could host our three programs:
- child day care
- education program
- skill training for women

Could I take this task?
We would be glad if you take the responsibility of the task.
Thank you so much.

Sabina
Thanks Sabina.
Pl arrange details like plot size and yr requirements.
Pl also mention about sorroundings- on all 4 sides.
I request Sabina for update on new plot. Pl also tell where else i could contribute.
Here little confusion arise . I guess.
Please be informed that it is not a new plot. It is the same plot which we have defined in design the building ( existing building-foundation completed).

Sabina
Dear Virendra,
Please find attached the part of the business plan related to the building. Could you check the information included and possibly add missing parts or suggest changes.

Dear all,
We should check the construction budget again against the new building design so we can either find an organisation to fund the construction or to make a fundraising event to raise the funds. I think people would be ready to give if we "sell them" specific things like paint, light bulbs, a ton of sand, etc. to contbribute to the building of a child care centre.
What do you think?

Hi,
My daughters school built a new hall last year and to help pay for it they sold bricks in the pavement outside that had the families names on plaques or carved in them as a fundraiser. That'd work to here to I think.

Maybe that could be an idea for a fundraiser in Kathmandu?
Hi Sabina,
Another thing that came to my mind:
Regarding the task of defining the requirements for the building. I think this would be really helpful/necessary in order to get funds for building materials: to count how much of what is needed to make the plan that we made reality. I'm wondering now if it is actually possible for people who are not THERE to see what is still needed since there is already a foundation there...do you think you could take over this task with a local person who knows about construction?
Kind regards,
Angelika
Dear Angelika and all,
With reference to above msg from Angelika, I would like to say it is true that for building materials ,to count how much of what is needed to make the plan . I have consulted with Architech Engineer here and he will soon help in defining requirements with budget plan.Once he prepares the construction plan i will post it.
regards
Sabina
That's great news!
Hi there,
This document looks like something that I might be able to help with. I can improve the draft. Could you let me know some more details of what's required at this stage? (I see that the last posting has a 2007 date, is this an error?)

Uvais
Dear Uvais,
Thank you for joining our team.
The doc which I posted in 2007 is here for ready reference.
Please check with that doc where we have mentioned necessary part.
Thanking you and hoping to see your postings.

Dear all,
Sabina finally got the construction budget from the architect - unfortunately way more than we considered with its Rs. 3,202,630.53 (US$ 44481.00) for building construction only....but at least we know what we're at and can try to find specific funding. I will save the attached budget as a resource.
Best, Angelika
