The hurricane hit Orchard village on 23 April. My home was one of 20 damaged, and 7 families are still in temporary shelter at the local school gym.
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 $2,550 goes:
• Roofing sheets and timber: $1,100
• Clean water and purification supplies: $175
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $400
• Food parcels for displaced families: $530
• Tools and labor for repairs: $345
Thanks for reading all this.

More neighborhoods should do this. Greetings from Prayagraj
Sending strength, Nuria. This could happen to any of us. My husband and I read this together. Love from Nairobi.
Gave what I could, wish it was more. Sent it to 40 people at work. Take care.
Hope things get better soon, Nuria. Hope this works out for you. God bless.
Keep going. Hope this works out for you. I have a 15 year old who wants to send good wishes too
Thinking of you. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Put this on a community board in Lahore this morning. Greetings from Lahore.
Hope things get better soon, Nuria. I hope things turn around soon
