The volcanic eruption hit Millbrook village on 30 March. My home was one of 37 damaged, and 14 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 $1,050 goes: • Roofing sheets and timber: $430 • Clean water and purification supplies: $195 • Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $140 • Tools and labor for repairs: $285 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

  • Sending good thoughts. More neighborhoods should do this. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.

    • Thanks for sharing this, Utami. Looking forward to the next update.

        Good luck. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from Southampton.

        • Sending love, Utami. Shared it with a few friends. I hope May is when things finally get easier. Thinking of Jakarta Selatan.

          • Stay strong. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Toulouse.

            • Praying for you. Gave what I could, wish it was more. It's not much but it's yours. Love from London.
