A volleyball only stadium in Dandenong - Empower Volleyball

Hi there,

My name is Amanda Davies, and for the past two years I have been working towards my dream of opening a volleyball only stadium - I have been playing volleyball for since 2001, and know that it is always hard to find courts! On a more personal note, volleyball was where I found myself, my home, my friends, and my family away from home. So this idea is inspired by the desire to help create a home for volleyball and players all around Victoria.

I need your help to make it happen - we're so close, and looking to open on March the 17th!

We have got the venue, bought the equipment (including the amazing taraflex flooring!) - but right here at the finishing stages I have been hit with a really hard blow. To finalise the concrete surface to a level where we can attach the Taraflex, the quote has changed from an initial $36,000 - to an EXTRA $170,000.

I did have some extra money to use as back up, but only planned for around 100,000-130,000 change in costing. So there is still an extra $40,000 that I need to find. To be honest I am struggling, and need your help.

Since I have told people about this project, there has been an outpouring of support and enthusiasm for the project, with so many asking how they can help. If you have the time could you:

or if you have the means

I'm so excited to share this stadium with the volleyball community, we just need to get past this one last hurdle :)
