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

The flood hit the Riverside neighborhood on 1 June. My home was one of 72 damaged, and 4 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 $2,250 goes:
• Roofing sheets and timber: $780
• Clean water and purification supplies: $380
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $280
• Food parcels for displaced families: $370
• Tools and labor for repairs: $440
Thank you so much.

Sending strength. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. Sent it to 28 people at work. Love from Noida.
best of luck. Shared it with a few friends. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
Praying for you, Aparecida. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Greetings from Nnewi
