The cyclone hit the families of Greenfield Lane on 11 September. My home was one of 17 damaged, and 10 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.
We buy supplies locally and in bulk, so the money goes further. Receipts and photos will be posted in updates.
Where the $750 goes:
• Clean water and purification supplies: $150
• Roofing sheets and timber: $210
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $155
• Tools and labor for repairs: $235
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Stay strong, Tanvi. Hope you get there. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend.
sending love, Tanvi. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Wish I lived closer to Half-Way Tree so I could bring a meal. Greetings from Ahmedabad
