Landslide in Bangkok: help the Marketplace settlement rebuild
Neighbors in the Marketplace settlement are rebuilding after the landslide; every contribution goes to materials and supplies.
🇹🇭 Bangkok, Thailand2,547 views
The landslide hit the Marketplace settlement on 3 September. My home was one of 36 damaged, and 12 families are still in temporary shelter at the community 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 $1,350 goes:
• Roofing sheets and timber: $860
• Tools and labor for repairs: $190
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $300
Every share and every dollar helps.

Hope things get better soon, Napat. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't give up. Thinking of Bangkok
Rooting for you. Great idea, hope you get there. Take care!
Sending love, Napat. More neighborhoods should do this. Love from Machakos.
