Typhoon in Hải Phòng: help Riverside village rebuild

The typhoon hit Riverside village on 1 June. My home was one of 61 damaged, and 7 families are still in temporary shelter at the local school gym.
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 $1,350 goes:
• Roofing sheets and timber: $690
• Clean water and purification supplies: $120
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $85
• Food parcels for displaced families: $270
• Tools and labor for repairs: $185
Thank you for reading my story.

Sending good thoughts, Như. More neighborhoods should do this
You're not alone. Hope this works out for you. I have a 5 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Blessings
Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Hải Phòng!
Thank you. If you're in Hải Phòng I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Ask me anything else.
Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. Put this on a community board in Orlando this morning. Thinking of Hải Phòng.
Good luck, Như. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. All the best
