The flood hit the Marketplace neighborhood on 30 July. My home was one of 20 damaged, and 5 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 $850 goes:
• Roofing sheets and timber: $420
• Clean water and purification supplies: $115
• Food parcels for displaced families: $115
• Tools and labor for repairs: $200

Sending good thoughts. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Greetings from Laval.
Hope things get better soon, Shuvo. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
sending strength. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. All the best
Thinking of you and your family, Shuvo. Great idea, hope you get there. Thinking of Gazipur
