The house fire that spread across the block hit the families of Eastgate Lane on 26 August. My home was one of 47 damaged, and 3 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. We buy supplies locally and in bulk, so the money goes further. Receipts and photos will be posted in updates. Where the $1,850 goes: • Clean water and purification supplies: $185 • Roofing sheets and timber: $1,350 • Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $315 I hope life is good to you.

Updates from Tetiana

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($639 in total) we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  2. Wanted to say thank you properly. 13% funded and I made the first payment toward clean water and purification supplies.

  3. Small update. $419 so far, I made the first payment toward bedding, blankets and mattresses.

      Hope things get better soon. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor in Tel Aviv donated after I showed her your page. Blessings.

      • Best of luck. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Take care

        • take care, Tetiana. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best.

          • You're not alone, Tetiana. Your post was clear and honest. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Blessings
