“280 Acres”

Story

Independent film makers need your generous help completing a very serious and important Environmental Documentary!

There is a massive environmental problem in my town (Tinley Park, Illinois) that our research has exposed. 

We have uncovered evidence that the State of Illinois knew that 280 Acres of abandoned State Owned Property were contaminated with Mercury, Lead, and Asbestos. 

With knowledge of these Toxins on the property, The State of Illinois has openly allowed thousands of children to use the property for soccer, baseball, and football practices. They have also allowed our Police and our Military to use the property for training purposes. Thousands upon thousands of children and adults were never informed of the dangers or risks.

After speaking publicly about the serious security issues and damaging evidence we’ve uncovered. “280 Acres” production has been contacted by several State of Illinois officials and Lawyers, even placing a “hard lockdown” on the property after recently allowing events on the property as recent as November 2019. 

Sadly, the State of Illinios has had investors and investment opportunities to clean and or develop the land but the State has refused to sell the property for what we feel are political reasons. Even going to great lengths to falsely accuse one investor with baseless allegations.

We will not stop, we are going forward with our documentary but we are under a tight time table. These issues need to be exposed and our production needs a boost to finish this Documentary. 

Below are links to the Facebook “280 Acres” page. If you can help by donating and or sharing this Kick Starter page, we would be very grateful 

Any amount will be tremendously appreciated. Funds will be used to pay the film crew, for editing, for distribution, camera and gear rentals, filming permits, and day to day expenses such as travel and deliveries.

We are hoping that we can reach our goal before February 1st.

Thank you in advance.
