The Harmony riverbank has been used as an informal dump for years. This July, 37 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 52 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 $350 goes: • Native saplings and stakes: $90 • Tools and protective gear: $85 • Waste removal and skip hire: $125 • Signage and educational materials: $50 Glad we found this place. - Anand

  1. Update from Bengaluru: I met with the nursery and confirmed the amounts. We're at 65% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
