The flood hit the families of Greenfield Lane on 9 February. My home was one of 68 damaged, and 10 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 $3,400 goes:
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $670
• Clean water and purification supplies: $570
• Food parcels for displaced families: $1,050
• Tools and labor for repairs: $1,110
Thanks for reading all this.

So sorry you're going through this, Maxim. This could happen to any of us. I'm in teaching myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Greetings from Los Angeles.
wishing you the best, Maxim. I hope things turn around soon.
Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. God bless.
Hang in there. I hope things turn around soon. I hope May is when things finally get easier. Take care.
Take care, Maxim. Great idea, hope you get there. Wish I lived closer to Los Angeles so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Rome!
Shared this with my family. I went through something like this 10 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Ankara.
