The fire in the market hit the families of Harbor Lane on 2 August. My home was one of 36 damaged, and 4 families are still in temporary shelter at a borrowed warehouse.
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 $1,200 goes:
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $155
• Roofing sheets and timber: $680
• Clean water and purification supplies: $110
• Food parcels for displaced families: $255
Thanks for being kind about this.

Wishing you the best, Athumani. Shared it with a few friends. We're a small family in Mumbai but we're thinking of you.
