Port Harcourt erosion collapse relief - the Northside district
After the erosion collapse, families in the Northside district need clean water, roofing materials and bedding.
🇳🇬 Port Harcourt, Rivers, Nigeria902 views
The erosion collapse hit the Northside district on 23 May. My home was one of 59 damaged, and 14 families are still in temporary shelter at the sports club.
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 $1,150 goes:
• Roofing sheets and timber: $600
• Clean water and purification supplies: $85
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $105
• Food parcels for displaced families: $105
• Tools and labor for repairs: $255
Glad we found this place.

Hang in there, Nnamdi. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Port Harcourt
Gave what I could, wish it was more. We're a small family in Joliet but we're thinking of you. Greetings from Joliet

rooting for you, Nnamdi. Looking forward to the next update. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
Gave what I could, wish it was more. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Love from Hồ Chí Minh City!
