The landslide hit the Eastgate district on 27 August. My home was one of 73 damaged, and 14 families are still in temporary shelter at a mosque and church 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 $1,150 goes:
• Roofing sheets and timber: $290
• Clean water and purification supplies: $170
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $195
• Food parcels for displaced families: $170
• Tools and labor for repairs: $325
Every share and every dollar helps.

take care. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
Keep going. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. Love from Toronto
Thinking of you. Hope you get there. My neighbor in Kasarani donated after I showed her your page.
Keep going, Sheila. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I'll check back for the next update. Blessings.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Quezon City.
