Clean streets and rivers for Aurangabad: restoring the Lotus hillside
Help us clean and replant the Lotus hillside before the October planting window closes.
🇮🇳 Maharashtra, India981 views
The Lotus hillside has been used as an informal dump for years. This August, 47 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 190 bags in a single morning. Now we want to restore it for good.
We have a plan agreed with the local forestry office, including native species selected by a local botanist.
The area floods more each year, and fish have returned for the first time in a decade after our first cleanup. Restoring it will protect homes and bring back shade.
All the labor is volunteered. We just need materials.
We'll post planting day photos and a count of every sapling planted.
Where the $250 goes:
• Native saplings and stakes: $115
• Tools and protective gear: $35
• Waste removal and skip hire: $80
• Signage and educational materials: $20
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Great idea, hope you get there. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home

Sending strength, Srinivas. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. All the best
keep going, Srinivas. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. Love from Nuremberg.
Best of luck. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Blessings
