The flash flood hit the Millbrook district on 23 August. My home was one of 88 damaged, and 2 families are still in temporary shelter at the local school gym. 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 $7,050 goes: • Tools and labor for repairs: $1,650 • Food parcels for displaced families: $2,050 • Roofing sheets and timber: $2,000 • Clean water and purification supplies: $1,350 I hope life is good to you.

        Sending strength, Isabella. Hope you get there. It's not much but it's yours. God bless!

        • hang in there. This could happen to any of us. All the best!

          • Thinking of you. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Love from Bornova.

            • Thinking of you. More neighborhoods should do this. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected

              • sending strength, Isabella. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Please keep us posted.

                • Sending strength, Isabella. Your post was clear and honest. We're a small family in Munich but we're thinking of you. Greetings from Munich.
