The house fire that spread across the block hit Northside village on 24 August. My home was one of 87 damaged, and 3 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 $1,400 goes:
• Roofing sheets and timber: $620
• Tools and labor for repairs: $280
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $195
• Food parcels for displaced families: $305
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Keep going, Suresh. Great idea, hope you get there. Blessings.
Wishing you peace. I hope things turn around soon. My neighbor in Nagpur donated after I showed her your page. Love from Nagpur!
You're not alone, Suresh. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. Put this on a community board in Yokohama this morning.
You're not alone, Suresh. Your post was clear and honest. All the best
Good luck. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. God bless.
Take care, Suresh. Great idea, hope you get there. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Pune.
Hope it all works out, Suresh. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. Thinking of Pune.
Good luck. Great idea, hope you get there. I'll check back for the next update. Greetings from Faisalabad.
