Clean water and shade for Bacoor: restoring Liberty Creek

Liberty Creek has been used as an informal dump for years. This October, 81 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 174 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. We'll post planting day photos and a count of every sapling planted. Where the $200 goes: • Signage and educational materials: $40 • Native saplings and stakes: $120 • Waste removal and skip hire: $40 Thanks for being kind about this. - Teresita
