The Unity hillside has been used as an informal dump for years. This August, 120 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 153 bags in a single morning. Now we want to restore it for good. We have a plan agreed with the district council, 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 $1,500 goes: • Signage and educational materials: $260 • Waste removal and skip hire: $790 • Tools and protective gear: $450 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Axel
