The Sycamore riverbank has been used as an informal dump for years. This March, 55 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 95 bags in a single morning. Now we want to restore it for good.
We have a plan agreed with the local forestry office, 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 $200 goes:
• Waste removal and skip hire: $100
• Signage and educational materials: $45
• Tools and protective gear: $55
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Love from Buenos Aires
thinking of you and your family, Lan. Shared it with a few friends. I'm in retail myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Blessings.
Good luck, Lan. Hope this works out for you. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Greetings from San Fernando.
