The flood hit Northside village on 16 September. My home was one of 36 damaged, and 2 families are still in temporary shelter at the sports club. The first few days we shared what little we had. Now the cleanup has started, but we've no money for materials and winter or the rainy season is coming. Schools in the area have been closed, and the clinic lost its cold storage for vaccines. We're a small community of working families who have never asked for help before. We have formed a volunteer committee, and I'm the treasurer, so I'll post receipts for everything we buy. Funds go to building materials, water purification supplies, bedding, and food for families still in shelters. Where the $9,050 goes: • Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $1,550 • Food parcels for displaced families: $1,850 • Clean water and purification supplies: $1,050 • Roofing sheets and timber: $4,600 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Karim

Updates from Karim

  1. Update from Albuquerque: we've started the first stage. We're at 23% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($1,085 in total) the plan for clean water and purification supplies is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

    Great idea, hope you get there. I went through something like this 2 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best.
