The storm hit the Harbor settlement on 15 September. My home was one of 78 damaged, and 12 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 $2,650 goes: • Food parcels for displaced families: $790 • Tools and labor for repairs: $670 • Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $1,190 Glad we found this place.

  • You're not alone, Itzhak. Shared it with a few friends. Wish I lived closer to Guarulhos so I could bring a meal.

    • Keep going, Itzhak. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Dhaka.

      • Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Itzhak
