Spanish Town
The hurricane hit the Harbor neighborhood on 3 June. My home was one of 59 damaged, and 11 families are still in temporary shelter at a mosque and church 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. 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: $280 • Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $370 • Roofing sheets and timber: $620 • Tools and labor for repairs: $580 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
