The flood hit Riverside village on 28 May. My home was one of 62 damaged, and 10 families are still in temporary shelter at the community 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 $1,000 goes:
• Roofing sheets and timber: $470
• Clean water and purification supplies: $100
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $150
• Food parcels for displaced families: $110
• Tools and labor for repairs: $170
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Praying for you. Looking forward to the next update. Don't give up. Thinking of Cầu Giấy.
Good luck. More neighborhoods should do this. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Coimbatore
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Nghĩa
It's all in the list in the story. roofing sheets and timber is the big one at $470, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. Thanks for looking so closely.
Wishing you peace, Nghĩa. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I'm in accounting myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Thinking of Cầu Giấy
It takes guts to ask. Well done. Greetings from Cairo.
Take care, Nghĩa. More neighborhoods should do this. It's not much but it's yours.
Take care, Nghĩa. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. God bless!
Wishing you the best, Nghĩa. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. God bless
Sending good thoughts, Nghĩa. Hope you get there. Greetings from Tamale.
