Landslide in Kisumu: help the Northside settlement rebuild
Neighbors in the Northside settlement are rebuilding after the landslide; every contribution goes to materials and supplies.

The landslide hit the Northside settlement on 3 July. My home was one of 60 damaged, and 3 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 $950 goes:
• Roofing sheets and timber: $420
• Clean water and purification supplies: $165
• Food parcels for displaced families: $365
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
