Storm in Bristol: help the Hillcrest neighborhood rebuild
Neighbors in the Hillcrest neighborhood are rebuilding after the storm; every contribution goes to materials and supplies.

The storm hit the Hillcrest neighborhood on 16 April. My home was one of 24 damaged, and 13 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 $4,800 goes:
• Clean water and purification supplies: $960
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $490
• Roofing sheets and timber: $1,850
• Tools and labor for repairs: $1,500
Thank you for reading my story.

keep going, Cora. Great idea, hope you get there. Thinking of Bristol
Shared this with my family. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Greetings from Onitsha.
Sending good thoughts, Cora. Shared it with a few friends. After 29 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care.
Thinking of you. Looking forward to the next update. We're a small family in San Antonio but we're thinking of you. God bless
thinking of you and your family. More neighborhoods should do this. We're a small family in Thủ Đức but we're thinking of you
Take care, Cora. Looking forward to the next update. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from Lagos.
thanks for sharing this. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. Please keep us posted. Take care
Wishing you the best. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I'll check back for the next update. God bless.
