The flood hit the families of Old Town Lane on 11 September. My home was one of 36 damaged, and 6 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 $5,650 goes:
• Roofing sheets and timber: $2,700
• Clean water and purification supplies: $960
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $520
• Food parcels for displaced families: $800
• Tools and labor for repairs: $670
Thanks for being kind about this.

Keep going, Ethan. Shared this with my family. Don't give up.
Wishing you the best. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Greetings from Toulon.
