The flood hit the Northside neighborhood on 30 March. My home was one of 88 damaged, and 4 families are still in temporary shelter at a borrowed warehouse. 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. We buy supplies locally and in bulk, so the money goes further. Receipts and photos will be posted in updates. Where the $1,550 goes: • Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $200 • Roofing sheets and timber: $930 • Tools and labor for repairs: $420 Every share and every dollar helps. - Rattana

      can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Khon Kaen

        Thank you. If you're in Khon Kaen I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great.

    • Hope you get there. Put this on a community board in Alcalá de Henares this morning.

      • Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Rattana

        • Rattana Malee SombatOwnerAnswerAddress verified

          Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. bedding, blankets and mattresses comes first ($200) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Thanks, that means a lot.

      • Praying for you. Hope this works out for you. God bless

        • Wishing you the best. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I'm in teaching myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Greetings from Giza.
