The Lotus riverbank has been used as an informal dump for years. This August, 77 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 149 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.
Funds buy saplings, gloves, bags, hire of a skip, and signage.
Where the $300 goes:
• Native saplings and stakes: $140
• Signage and educational materials: $25
• Waste removal and skip hire: $135
Thanks for reading all this.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Vũ.
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. native saplings and stakes comes first ($140) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid.
rooting for you, Vũ. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I have a 8 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Blessings.
Praying for you, Vũ. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.
Sending strength, Vũ. Shared it with a few friends!
