Liberty Creek has been used as an informal dump for years. This August, 106 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 168 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 $350 goes:
• Native saplings and stakes: $165
• Tools and protective gear: $80
• Waste removal and skip hire: $70
• Signage and educational materials: $35
Thank you so much.

Quick update: $53 raised so far (15%). I made the first payment toward tools and protective gear. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.
Thank you all. We're at 15% now ($53). I'm honestly stunned. I met with the nursery and confirmed the amounts. - Jasmine
Update from Lapu-Lapu: the first invoice got paid this week. We're at 1% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
