The heatwave hit the families of Northside Lane on 15 June. My home was one of 83 damaged, and 7 families are still in temporary shelter at the sports club.
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 $1,050 goes:
• Tools and labor for repairs: $270
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $125
• Food parcels for displaced families: $210
• Roofing sheets and timber: $445

So sorry you're going through this, Meet. This could happen to any of us.
so sorry you're going through this, Meet. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Wish I lived closer to Nijmegen so I could bring a meal. Love from Mumbai.
Sending good thoughts. I hope things turn around soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Feira de Santana
wishing you peace. Hope you get there. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. God bless.
Take care, Meet. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it
