Sycamore Creek has been used as an informal dump for years. This January, 90 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 114 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 $400 goes: • Native saplings and stakes: $200 • Tools and protective gear: $45 • Waste removal and skip hire: $130 • Signage and educational materials: $25 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Imran

    Thanks for sharing this, Imran. This could happen to any of us. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Mumbai.

    • Hang in there, Imran. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. I went through something like this 4 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings
