Rebuilding after the flash flood: the Greenfield district needs your help
After the flash flood, families in the Greenfield district need clean water, roofing materials and bedding.

The flash flood hit the Greenfield district on 3 September. My home was one of 42 damaged, and 8 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 $4,450 goes:
• Tools and labor for repairs: $1,100
• Roofing sheets and timber: $2,400
• Clean water and purification supplies: $950
Thank you for reading my story.

reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I'm in public service myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Thinking of Buffalo.
So sorry you're going through this, Tyler. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.
Good luck, Tyler. Looking forward to the next update. Blessings.
can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Buffalo.
Thank you. If you're in Buffalo I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Appreciate you taking the time.
