Project Description:
We are a family support center, providing therapy for children and poor families. We have a lovely Art Deco building near downtown Oakland, with a small street garden along two sides of the building. We have been advised that we need to dig a drainage trench, and most of it has been completed, but we need some help completing the last section. It involves digging a small trench next to the wall and filling it with gravel. The soil is hard so it will need pick and shovel work.

Special Skills or Tools Required:
This is physical labor, so be STRONG. Old clothes, picks or hand digging tools and shovels/spades would be useful, but if you don't have these tools, we will find someone who can provide them.

Supplies Needed:
