Plant 1,250 native trees around the Pioneer hillside in Depok
Help us clean and replant the Pioneer hillside before the August planting window closes.
🇮🇩 Depok, West Java, Indonesia1,250 views
The Pioneer hillside has been used as an informal dump for years. This May, 96 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 107 bags in a single morning. Now we want to restore it for good.
We have a plan agreed with the municipal water board, 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 $150 goes:
• Tools and protective gear: $40
• Signage and educational materials: $20
• Waste removal and skip hire: $90
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Sending strength, Sri. It takes guts to ask. Well done
Rooting for you. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry!
hope it all works out. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home!
Take care. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in!
sending strength, Sri. I hope things turn around soon. Wish I lived closer to Montego Bay so I could bring a meal.
