Quezon City landslide relief - the Millbrook neighborhood
Neighbors in the Millbrook neighborhood are rebuilding after the landslide; every contribution goes to materials and supplies.
🇵🇭 Quezon City, Metro Manila, Philippines1,978 views
The landslide hit the Millbrook neighborhood on 1 January. My home was one of 69 damaged, and 12 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 $900 goes:
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $200
• Roofing sheets and timber: $480
• Food parcels for displaced families: $220
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Best of luck, Teresita. Shared it with a few friends. After 30 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Teresita.
Sure. The biggest one is bedding, blankets and mattresses, $200. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Happy to explain more.
You're not alone, Teresita. I hope things turn around soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected!
Wishing you peace, Teresita. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. Don't give up. Love from Montréal.
Thinking of you, Teresita. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Thinking of Quezon City.
