The flood hit Orchard village on 28 August. My home was one of 90 damaged, and 6 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 $1,200 goes:
• Roofing sheets and timber: $790
• Tools and labor for repairs: $145
• Food parcels for displaced families: $130
• Clean water and purification supplies: $135
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

hope things get better soon, Radha. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Greetings from Kyiv.
Keep going. More neighborhoods should do this. After 12 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care
Keep going. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. All the best.
Hope it all works out, Radha. Hope you get there. I went through something like this 6 years ago and strangers helped me out. God bless
