The flood hit Northside village on 20 August. My home was one of 32 damaged, and 12 families are still in temporary shelter at a mosque and church 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 $6,650 goes:
• Roofing sheets and timber: $3,800
• Clean water and purification supplies: $790
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $420
• Food parcels for displaced families: $890
• Tools and labor for repairs: $750
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

wishing you peace. This could happen to any of us. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Boulogne-Billancourt
Hope you get there. Greetings from Medina!
Stay strong, Alice. More neighborhoods should do this.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. My husband and I read this together. Blessings
Sending strength. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I hope October is when things finally get easier. Blessings.
