Freedom Beach has been used as an informal dump for years. This April, 108 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 78 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: • Native saplings and stakes: $160 • Waste removal and skip hire: $70 • Signage and educational materials: $20 I hope life is good to you.

Updates from Haider

  1. Update from Sukkur: the plan for waste removal and skip hire is now scheduled. We're at 10% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

  2. 10% there. I made the first payment toward signage and educational materials. Thank you.

  3. Good news. Because of your gifts ($15 in total) the plan for waste removal and skip hire is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
