Clean streets and rivers for Berlin: restoring Cedar Beach
Volunteers are restoring Cedar Beach in Berlin; $1,600 covers saplings, tools and waste removal.
🇩🇪 Germany1,620 views
Cedar Beach has been used as an informal dump for years. This August, 99 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 169 bags in a single morning. Now we want to restore it for good.
We have a plan agreed with the city parks department, 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.
Funds buy saplings, gloves, bags, hire of a skip, and signage.
Where the $1,600 goes:
• Signage and educational materials: $260
• Waste removal and skip hire: $820
• Tools and protective gear: $520
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Take care. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Thinking of Berlin
Great idea, hope you get there. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from London.
Sending good thoughts. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Faisalabad.
