The flood hit the Eastgate settlement on 20 June. My home was one of 37 damaged, and 7 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 $5,000 goes:
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $670
• Roofing sheets and timber: $1,550
• Tools and labor for repairs: $1,050
• Food parcels for displaced families: $1,730
Every share and every dollar helps.

Rooting for you, Natalia. Shared this with my family. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from Multan
Praying for you, Natalia. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. All the best.
reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We're a small family in Vancouver but we're thinking of you. Take care.
Thinking of you, Natalia. More neighborhoods should do this. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
Thinking of you and your family. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from Jerusalem.
