The flood hit Sunrise village on 22 July. My home was one of 57 damaged, and 14 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 $900 goes:
• Tools and labor for repairs: $250
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $440
• Food parcels for displaced families: $210
Glad we found this place.

Best of luck. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Coatzacoalcos.
Shared it with a few friends. After 7 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless.
Wishing you the best. This could happen to any of us. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Love from Memphis!
Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Coatzacoalcos!
Thank you. If you're in Coatzacoalcos I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Fair thing to want to know.
Wishing you peace. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. God bless!
great idea, hope you get there. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day
Wishing you the best. I hope things turn around soon. Love from Oakland.
Wishing you the best, Camila. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes
Hope you get there. Greetings from Mardan
