The Unity canal has been used as an informal dump for years. This January, 39 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 172 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 $250 goes: • Signage and educational materials: $35 • Native saplings and stakes: $115 • Waste removal and skip hire: $100 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

  • Hang in there, Bambang. Looking forward to the next update. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
