The flood hit the families of Riverside Lane on 31 August. My home was one of 71 damaged, and 10 families are still in temporary shelter at the community hall.
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 $2,050 goes:
• Roofing sheets and timber: $880
• Clean water and purification supplies: $230
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $320
• Food parcels for displaced families: $175
• Tools and labor for repairs: $445
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Wishing you the best, Jiraporn. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Put this on a community board in Mumbai this morning.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Jiraporn.
It's all in the list in the story. roofing sheets and timber is the big one at $880, I'll post a receipt when it's paid.
Hope it all works out, Jiraporn. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. All the best.
So sorry you're going through this, Jiraporn. Looking forward to the next update. After 26 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings
thinking of you, Jiraporn. Shared it with a few friends.
Good luck. More neighborhoods should do this. Thinking of Bangkok.
Hope things get better soon, Jiraporn. Hope you get there. Wish I lived closer to Ho so I could bring a meal. Take care.
You're not alone, Jiraporn. Hope you get there. Love from San Diego.
Thinking of you, Jiraporn. Looking forward to the next update. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Blessings.
