The house fire that spread across the block hit the Eastgate settlement on 28 March. My home was one of 73 damaged, and 4 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 $7,400 goes:
• Tools and labor for repairs: $1,600
• Food parcels for displaced families: $1,200
• Clean water and purification supplies: $640
• Roofing sheets and timber: $3,960

Thinking of you and your family, Itzhak. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Thinking of Tel Aviv.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Itzhak!
Sure. The biggest one is tools and labor for repairs, $1,600. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Fair thing to want to know.
Hang in there, Itzhak. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.
Hope things get better soon. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I went through something like this 4 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Tel Aviv.
Hope it all works out, Itzhak. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My husband and I read this together. Love from Pune.
Thanks for sharing this. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I have a 5 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Take care.
You're not alone, Itzhak. More neighborhoods should do this. Love from Lapu-Lapu.
Wishing you peace, Itzhak. Looking forward to the next update. Love from Adama.
hang in there, Itzhak. Looking forward to the next update. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. God bless.
looking forward to the next update. We're a small family in Johannesburg but we're thinking of you
