Benjamin chose a project that will help for years to come.
It was in the Ironwood National Monument

The project was building dams in a tract of land that had been illegally bulldozed years ago to make a private runway. This photo shows the sparse brush trying to grow back. The dams slow the rainwater preventing erosion and helping the plants to grow again.
