Unity Beach has been used as an informal dump for years. This June, 69 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 105 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.
Funds buy saplings, gloves, bags, hire of a skip, and signage.
Where the $350 goes:
• Native saplings and stakes: $140
• Tools and protective gear: $90
• Waste removal and skip hire: $85
• Signage and educational materials: $35
Glad we found this place.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Kwasi.
It's all in the list in the story. native saplings and stakes is the big one at $140, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. Ask me anything else.
Sending love, Kwasi. Your post was clear and honest. Take care.
How is Kwasi doing now?
Sending love. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.
take care. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
Stay strong, Kwasi. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Love from Hamilton
