The landslide hit the Millbrook district on 5 October. My home was one of 42 damaged, and 4 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.
We buy supplies locally and in bulk, so the money goes further. Receipts and photos will be posted in updates.
Where the $1,100 goes:
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $240
• Tools and labor for repairs: $340
• Food parcels for displaced families: $520
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Updates from Pichai
Good news. Because of your gifts ($203 in total) I made the first payment toward tools and labor for repairs. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
Quick update: $30 raised so far (3%). the first invoice got paid this week. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

gave what I could, wish it was more. We're a small family in Guarulhos but we're thinking of you.
sending strength. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. Put this on a community board in Tampa this morning.
Stay strong. Shared it with a few friends. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Gondar.
Hope things get better soon. This could happen to any of us. We're a small family in Kano but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Phuket.
