The storm hit the families of Greenfield Lane on 5 July. My home was one of 32 damaged, and 7 families are still in temporary shelter at a borrowed warehouse.
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 $3,350 goes:
• Food parcels for displaced families: $600
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $310
• Tools and labor for repairs: $340
• Roofing sheets and timber: $2,100
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Is there anything that isn't money that would help Weronika?
Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about food parcels for displaced families, advice is welcome too. Good question.
everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Greetings from Córdoba.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Weronika.
Food parcels for displaced families is $600 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Good question.
Hang in there, Weronika. Looking forward to the next update. God bless.
praying for you. Great idea, hope you get there. All the best.
Thinking of you. More neighborhoods should do this. Thinking of Radom.
any update on how things are going in Radom?
Stay strong, Weronika. Shared this with my family. After 28 years in accounting I know how hard it is to ask for anything. All the best.

So sorry you're going through this. This could happen to any of us. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Thinking of Radom.
Rooting for you, Weronika. More neighborhoods should do this. My neighbor in Casablanca donated after I showed her your page.
Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. Greetings from Dehiwala.

Praying for you, Weronika. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
I hope things turn around soon. Greetings from New Delhi
I hope things turn around soon. We're a small family in Manchester but we're thinking of you. Greetings from Manchester.
