This proposal meets the criteria and will move on to the community vote in March.

✅ Public benefit in Dorchester and nonpartisan.

✅ Fits the budget ($5k) and is doable in ~2 months (by May 31, 2026)

✅ We can pay for it via one of our channels (vendor contract, subgrant, stipends/microgrants, goods distribution, direct assistance).

✅ Permission in hand for any space you don’t control or pivot to a portable/off-site version.

While there are still some things to figure out (how to disperse funds), this small detail can be figured out after the vote.
