The storm hit the Sunrise settlement on 19 June. My home was one of 14 damaged, and 14 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 $3,750 goes:
• Roofing sheets and timber: $1,700
• Clean water and purification supplies: $340
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $490
• Food parcels for displaced families: $520
• Tools and labor for repairs: $700
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Cluj-Napoca.
Thank you. If you're in Cluj-Napoca I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Appreciate you taking the time.
Stay strong. This could happen to any of us. Please keep us posted.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Alina.
The list at the bottom is the whole picture. roofing sheets and timber is the biggest at $1,700. Good question.
