The erosion collapse hit Northside village on 2 July. My home was one of 64 damaged, and 2 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 $750 goes:
• Roofing sheets and timber: $350
• Clean water and purification supplies: $75
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $195
• Tools and labor for repairs: $130
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

Wishing you the best, Lola. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like
Hope things get better soon, Lola. Hope this works out for you. Thinking of Ikeja.
