The landslide hit the Lakeview district on 17 September. My home was one of 89 damaged, and 6 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 $1,450 goes:
• Clean water and purification supplies: $340
• Tools and labor for repairs: $390
• Roofing sheets and timber: $720
Thanks for being kind about this.
Updates from Edilene
Update from São Paulo: we've started the first stage. We're at 7% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
We're at 8% thanks to 5 of you. I made the first payment toward roofing sheets and timber. More news soon.
Quick update: $121 raised so far (8%). the first invoice got paid this week. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

you're not alone. It takes guts to ask. Well done. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of São Paulo
thinking of you and your family, Edilene. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Take care.
Stay strong. Hope this works out for you. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money
