The cyclone hit the Sunrise district on 19 July. My home was one of 59 damaged, and 8 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 $900 goes:
• Food parcels for displaced families: $105
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $150
• Clean water and purification supplies: $115
• Roofing sheets and timber: $530

Hope things get better soon. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. Greetings from Bhopal.
any update on how things are going in Chattogram?
so sorry you're going through this. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I have a 5 year old who wants to send good wishes too
Wishing you peace, Jahid. More neighborhoods should do this. I'm in farming myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Love from Zaria.
Sending love, Jahid. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. All the best!
Sending love, Jahid. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Take care.
