The flood hit the Sunrise neighborhood on 10 August. My home was one of 75 damaged, and 13 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 $1,400 goes: • Clean water and purification supplies: $330 • Tools and labor for repairs: $400 • Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $260 • Roofing sheets and timber: $410 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

  • Sending love. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. I have a 6 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Thinking of Niterói!

    • Wishing you peace, Renata. I hope things turn around soon. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out.
