The landslide hit the Hillcrest neighborhood on 10 February. My home was one of 60 damaged, and 11 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.
Funds go to building materials, water purification supplies, bedding, and food for families still in shelters.
Where the $1,150 goes:
• Tools and labor for repairs: $390
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $175
• Clean water and purification supplies: $135
• Food parcels for displaced families: $450
Thank you for reading my story.

More neighborhoods should do this. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.
Is there anything that isn't money that would help Thawatchai?
Thank you. If you're in Phuket I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks, that means a lot.
reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Love from Kaduna.
Thanks for sharing this, Thawatchai. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
Thinking of you, Thawatchai. It takes guts to ask. Well done. God bless
Gave what I could, wish it was more. Sent it to 36 people at work. All the best.
Sending love, Thawatchai. This could happen to any of us. Blessings
