The flood hit the Hillcrest district on 30 September. My home was one of 66 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.
We buy supplies locally and in bulk, so the money goes further. Receipts and photos will be posted in updates.
Where the $3,000 goes:
• Roofing sheets and timber: $1,900
• Clean water and purification supplies: $620
• Tools and labor for repairs: $480
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

hang in there, Esperanza. Shared this with my family. I'll check back for the next update. Greetings from Pretoria.
praying for you, Esperanza. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Thinking of San Sebastián.
Hang in there, Esperanza. Shared this with my family. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best.
Rooting for you. More neighborhoods should do this. My neighbor in Nairobi donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of San Sebastián.
Best of luck, Esperanza. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. God bless.
