Plant 4,200 native trees around Baobab Creek in Quezon City
Help us clean and replant Baobab Creek before the September planting window closes.
🇵🇭 Philippines673 views
Baobab Creek has been used as an informal dump for years. This June, 57 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 154 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.
We'll post planting day photos and a count of every sapling planted.
Where the $250 goes:
• Waste removal and skip hire: $120
• Tools and protective gear: $80
• Signage and educational materials: $50
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Hope things get better soon, Miguel. This could happen to any of us. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
Praying for you, Miguel. I hope things turn around soon.
Good luck. This could happen to any of us. I'm in construction myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Blessings.
Wishing you the best, Miguel. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Love from Guarulhos
