The landslide hit Sunrise village on 14 August. My home was one of 82 damaged, and 10 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 $2,150 goes: • Tools and labor for repairs: $260 • Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $310 • Roofing sheets and timber: $1,150 • Food parcels for displaced families: $430 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Luiz

  • Thinking of you and your family, Luiz. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We're a small family in Warren but we're thinking of you. God bless

    • You're not alone, Luiz. Your post was clear and honest. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.

      • Good luck. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. My husband and I read this together.

        • Stay strong, Luiz. I hope things turn around soon. It's not much but it's yours. All the best.

          • Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. We're a small family in Lahore but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Campinas.

            • Praying for you, Luiz. More neighborhoods should do this. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless!

              • Sending love, Luiz. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I'm in teaching myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
