Clean air and water for Kelowna: restoring the Cedar wetland
A neighborhood-led restoration of the Cedar wetland needs $1,800 for saplings and equipment.
Updates from Jaxon
Quick update: $515 raised so far (29%). the first invoice got paid this week. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.
Update from Kelowna: I made the first payment toward signage and educational materials. We're at 49% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
Good news. Because of your gifts ($1,546 in total) the first invoice got paid this week. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

thanks for sharing this, Jaxon. I hope things turn around soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Take care
can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Kelowna.
Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about native saplings and stakes, advice is welcome too. Fair thing to want to know.
So sorry you're going through this. Your post was clear and honest. We're a small family in Lalitpur but we're thinking of you.
Wishing you peace. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. My husband and I read this together
any update on how things are going in Kelowna?
Hang in there. Hope you get there. I went through something like this 7 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Zapopan.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Jaxon!
It's all in the list in the story. native saplings and stakes is the big one at $850, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. It helps to be asked.
Thinking of you and your family, Jaxon. This could happen to any of us. Thinking of Kelowna.
More neighborhoods should do this. My neighbor in Calgary donated after I showed her your page. Love from Calgary.
