The flood hit the families of Harbor Lane on 31 January. My home was one of 69 damaged, and 9 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. Funds go to building materials, water purification supplies, bedding, and food for families still in shelters. Where the $3,150 goes: • Clean water and purification supplies: $920 • Food parcels for displaced families: $1,350 • Tools and labor for repairs: $880 Thank you so much.

  1. Thank you all. We're at 14% now ($456). I'm honestly stunned. I made the first payment toward food parcels for displaced families.

  2. 5% there. I made the first payment toward tools and labor for repairs. Thank you.
