Madrid flood relief - the Greenfield district

Neighbors in the Greenfield district are rebuilding after the flood; every contribution goes to materials and supplies.

The flood hit the Greenfield district on 22 September. My home was one of 17 damaged, and 7 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 $6,450 goes: • Roofing sheets and timber: $2,800 • Clean water and purification supplies: $400 • Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $690 • Food parcels for displaced families: $910 • Tools and labor for repairs: $1,650 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Abril

Updates from Abril

  1. Thank you all. We're at 12% now ($760). I'm honestly stunned. I met with the suppliers and confirmed the amounts.

    Thinking of you and your family. Looking forward to the next update. Wish I lived closer to Erie so I could bring a meal.

          stay strong. This could happen to any of us. I went through something like this 7 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best.
