The cyclone hit the families of Northside Lane on 31 October. My home was one of 88 damaged, and 2 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. Funds go to building materials, water purification supplies, bedding, and food for families still in shelters. Where the $850 goes: • Food parcels for displaced families: $230 • Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $125 • Clean water and purification supplies: $140 • Tools and labor for repairs: $355 I hope life is good to you.

      Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. food parcels for displaced families comes first ($230) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Thanks for asking.

  • sending strength. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. We're a small family in Caloocan but we're thinking of you. All the best.
