The flood hit the Northside settlement on 15 April. My home was one of 48 damaged, and 2 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. We buy supplies locally and in bulk, so the money goes further. Receipts and photos will be posted in updates. Where the $2,450 goes: • Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $720 • Food parcels for displaced families: $880 • Clean water and purification supplies: $850 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Inés

    Hang in there. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Blessings.

    • Sending good thoughts, Inés. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Wish I lived closer to Los Angeles so I could bring a meal.

      • Your post was clear and honest. Wish I lived closer to Frankfurt so I could bring a meal.

        • So sorry you're going through this, Inés. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best.

          • More neighborhoods should do this. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Bucaramanga.
