The Liberty riverbank has been used as an informal dump for years. This January, 64 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 55 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 $400 goes: • Native saplings and stakes: $190 • Tools and protective gear: $80 • Waste removal and skip hire: $100 • Signage and educational materials: $30 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

  • Wishing you the best, Parth. Shared this with my family. Thinking of Aurangabad!

    • Rooting for you, Parth. Shared it with a few friends. I have a 12 year old who wants to send good wishes too.

      • Thinking of you and your family. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. All the best.

        • Wishing you the best. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. Put this on a community board in Saint-Denis this morning. God bless.
