The flood hit the families of Hillcrest Lane on 8 May. My home was one of 64 damaged, and 4 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 $5,150 goes:
• Roofing sheets and timber: $1,650
• Clean water and purification supplies: $390
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $1,150
• Food parcels for displaced families: $700
• Tools and labor for repairs: $1,260
I hope life is good to you.

Sending love, Nina. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. After 15 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Augsburg.
Hope things get better soon, Nina. Shared it with a few friends. It's not much but it's yours.
You're not alone. I hope things turn around soon. Thinking of Augsburg.
Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from London
keep going, Nina. Your post was clear and honest. Blessings.
