The earthquake hit the families of Riverside Lane on 24 July. My home was one of 36 damaged, and 8 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. Funds go to building materials, water purification supplies, bedding, and food for families still in shelters. Where the $800 goes: • Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $135 • Roofing sheets and timber: $470 • Food parcels for displaced families: $195 Thank you so much. - Bilal

    So sorry you're going through this, Bilal. More neighborhoods should do this

      praying for you, Bilal. Shared this with my family. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
