The flood hit the families of Sunrise Lane on 19 May. My home was one of 21 damaged, and 9 families are still in temporary shelter at a mosque and church 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.
We buy supplies locally and in bulk, so the money goes further. Receipts and photos will be posted in updates.
Where the $3,700 goes:
• Food parcels for displaced families: $490
• Clean water and purification supplies: $240
• Roofing sheets and timber: $2,350
• Tools and labor for repairs: $620
Glad we found this place.

How is Ugo doing now?
You're not alone, Ugo. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Blessings.
Hang in there, Ugo. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Kinondoni
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Ugo.
hang in there. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. All the best
Best of luck. Great idea, hope you get there. Take care.
Thanks for sharing this, Ugo. This could happen to any of us.
