Enugu
The erosion collapse hit the Harbor settlement on 12 September. My home was one of 15 damaged, and 13 families are still in temporary shelter at a mosque and church hall. 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 $750 goes: • Tools and labor for repairs: $230 • Clean water and purification supplies: $145 • Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $80 • Roofing sheets and timber: $295 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
