Restoring the Acacia hillside: a volunteer-led project in Hải Phòng
Volunteers are restoring the Acacia hillside in Hải Phòng; $200 covers saplings, tools and waste removal.

The Acacia hillside has been used as an informal dump for years. This March, 56 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 117 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 $200 goes:
• Signage and educational materials: $20
• Waste removal and skip hire: $155
• Tools and protective gear: $25
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Hải Phòng
Thank you. If you're in Hải Phòng I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. It helps to be asked.
Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. It's not much but it's yours. Take care
Hang in there. Looking forward to the next update. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Hải Phòng.
