Verona flood relief - the Lakeview settlement
After the flood, families in the Lakeview settlement need clean water, roofing materials and bedding.
🇮🇹 Veneto, Italy703 views
The flood hit the Lakeview settlement on 29 July. My home was one of 12 damaged, and 5 families are still in temporary shelter at the community hall.
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.
Funds go to building materials, water purification supplies, bedding, and food for families still in shelters.
Where the $4,050 goes:
• Roofing sheets and timber: $1,800
• Tools and labor for repairs: $1,400
• Clean water and purification supplies: $850
Thank you so much.

can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Verona.
Thank you. If you're in Verona I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks for looking so closely.
thinking of you, Edoardo. Shared it with a few friends. After 13 years in construction I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Love from Bangkok.
you're not alone, Edoardo. Looking forward to the next update. It's not much but it's yours.
stay strong, Edoardo. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.
Thinking of you, Edoardo. More neighborhoods should do this. All the best.
Thinking of you and your family, Edoardo. It takes guts to ask. Well done.
You're not alone. Your post was clear and honest. I'm in social work myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Thinking of Verona.
hope things get better soon. I hope things turn around soon. Love from Santa Fe
Shared this with my family. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day
