Bhaktapur
The earthquake hit the Lakeview district on 18 July. My home was one of 16 damaged, and 14 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. We buy supplies locally and in bulk, so the money goes further. Receipts and photos will be posted in updates. Where the $600 goes: • Roofing sheets and timber: $270 • Clean water and purification supplies: $90 • Tools and labor for repairs: $120 • Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $120 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support. - Radha

  • you're not alone, Radha. More neighborhoods should do this. Put this on a community board in Girona this morning. All the best

    • Wyatt CoxQuestion

      Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Radha.

        Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. roofing sheets and timber comes first ($270) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Thanks, that means a lot.
