🇰🇷 South Korea655 views
Pioneer Beach has been used as an informal dump for years. This September, 83 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 119 bags in a single morning. Now we want to restore it for good.
We have a plan agreed with the district council, 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 $1,600 goes:
• Native saplings and stakes: $950
• Tools and protective gear: $210
• Waste removal and skip hire: $250
• Signage and educational materials: $190
Thank you so much.

Hope things get better soon, Jung-ho. Hope you get there. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust
Hang in there. Shared this with my family. After 13 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care.
sending love, Jung-ho. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't give up.
