The hurricane hit Riverside village on 13 January. My home was one of 56 damaged, and 14 families are still in temporary shelter at the local school gym.
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 $1,500 goes:
• Roofing sheets and timber: $550
• Clean water and purification supplies: $250
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $220
• Food parcels for displaced families: $185
• Tools and labor for repairs: $295
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

So sorry you're going through this. Shared it with a few friends. After 7 years in construction I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings.
good luck. Hope you get there. Greetings from Riverside.
Praying for you, Adrián. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Brasília.
hope you get there. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.
Thinking of you, Adrián. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. Put this on a community board in Bangkok this morning. Thinking of Ciudad de México.
