The flood hit the families of Harbor Lane on 31 August. My home was one of 68 damaged, and 9 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 $600 goes: • Clean water and purification supplies: $70 • Tools and labor for repairs: $135 • Roofing sheets and timber: $260 • Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $135 Glad we found this place. - Rima

    • Maverick N. JensenQuestion

      is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Rima.

      • Rima Sharmin RashidOwnerAnswer

        Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. clean water and purification supplies comes first ($70) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Good question.

    • Imam Rizky Mahendra

      Hope you get there. I went through something like this 9 years ago and strangers helped me out. God bless.

      • Myra P. Prajapati

        This could happen to any of us. I'll check back for the next update. Blessings
