The erosion collapse hit the Hillcrest neighborhood on 24 December. My home was one of 37 damaged, and 14 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.
Funds go to building materials, water purification supplies, bedding, and food for families still in shelters.
Where the $1,000 goes:
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $185
• Tools and labor for repairs: $145
• Food parcels for displaced families: $175
• Roofing sheets and timber: $495
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Thank you all. We're at 15% now ($150). I'm honestly stunned. I made the first payment toward roofing sheets and timber.

You're not alone, Uche. Shared it with a few friends. Put this on a community board in Indore this morning. Take care.
