Harmony Creek has been used as an informal dump for years. This July, 91 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 115 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 $400 goes:
• Native saplings and stakes: $140
• Tools and protective gear: $135
• Waste removal and skip hire: $120
• Signage and educational materials: $5
With deep gratitude,
Alina

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Alina
Sure. The biggest one is native saplings and stakes, $140. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one.
Sending strength, Alina. Hope you get there. I went through something like this 6 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Anaheim.

Hang in there, Alina. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Sent it to 15 people at work.

hang in there, Alina. Shared this with my family. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
Hope you get there. My neighbor in Nakuru donated after I showed her your page. All the best.
