The landslide hit the Sunrise settlement on 10 October. My home was one of 37 damaged, and 2 families are still in temporary shelter at the local school gym.
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 $2,450 goes:
• Roofing sheets and timber: $810
• Clean water and purification supplies: $320
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $320
• Food parcels for displaced families: $530
• Tools and labor for repairs: $470

So sorry you're going through this. Shared this with my family. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Contagem.

Hang in there, Leandro. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Wish I lived closer to Dhaka so I could bring a meal. All the best.

Looking forward to the next update. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Thinking of Contagem.
Best of luck. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We're a small family in Embakasi but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Contagem.
