The cyclone hit the families of Northside Lane on 10 March. My home was one of 50 damaged, and 9 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 $1,150 goes:
• Food parcels for displaced families: $320
• Roofing sheets and timber: $450
• Clean water and purification supplies: $150
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $230

Thinking of you and your family. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Thinking of Nagpur.
any update on how things are going in Nagpur?
hang in there. It takes guts to ask. Well done!
So sorry you're going through this, Lokesh. Shared this with my family. Put this on a community board in Richards Bay this morning. All the best.
Take care. Great idea, hope you get there. God bless
