Rebuilding after the flood: the Northside district needs your help
Neighbors in the Northside district are rebuilding after the flood; every contribution goes to materials and supplies.
🇮🇩 Yogyakarta, Yogyakarta, Indonesia798 views
The flood hit the Northside district on 19 August. My home was one of 81 damaged, and 10 families are still in temporary shelter at a mosque and church 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 $1,550 goes:
• Roofing sheets and timber: $730
• Clean water and purification supplies: $170
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $175
• Food parcels for displaced families: $250
• Tools and labor for repairs: $225
With deep gratitude,
Novi

Praying for you, Novi. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Love from Mardan.
is there anything that isn't money that would help Novi?
Thank you. If you're in Yogyakarta I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great.
Hope things get better soon, Novi. Hope you get there
keep going, Novi. Great idea, hope you get there. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Take care.
Good luck. Hope this works out for you. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. God bless.
