Liberty Creek has been used as an informal dump for years. This May, 95 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 77 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 $1,300 goes:
• Native saplings and stakes: $600
• Tools and protective gear: $300
• Waste removal and skip hire: $300
• Signage and educational materials: $100
Thank you so much.

How is Andrzej doing now?
Praying for you. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 6 year old who wants to send good wishes too
You're not alone, Andrzej. Hope you get there. Don't be hard on yourself for asking
Hope things get better soon, Andrzej. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Karachi
Good luck, Andrzej. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. Wish I lived closer to Glasgow so I could bring a meal. Greetings from San Jose
Sending good thoughts, Andrzej. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Nashik.
