The flood hit the Riverside settlement on 25 December. My home was one of 26 damaged, and 10 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 $650 goes:
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $175
• Tools and labor for repairs: $240
• Roofing sheets and timber: $235
With deep gratitude,
Bushra

take care, Bushra. Hope you get there. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
is there anything that isn't money that would help Bushra?
Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about bedding, blankets and mattresses, advice is welcome too. Thanks, that means a lot.
