The hurricane hit Old Town village on 1 April. My home was one of 83 damaged, and 8 families are still in temporary shelter at a mosque and church 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.
We buy supplies locally and in bulk, so the money goes further. Receipts and photos will be posted in updates.
Where the $5,700 goes:
• Clean water and purification supplies: $700
• Tools and labor for repairs: $2,350
• Roofing sheets and timber: $2,650
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

Praying for you. More neighborhoods should do this. After 22 years in logistics I know how hard it's to ask for anything
Rooting for you, Jayden. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. God bless.
gave what I could, wish it was more. After 21 years in logistics I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Love from Dhaka.
Sending love, Jayden. Your post was clear and honest. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Uberlândia
Best of luck, Jayden. More neighborhoods should do this. All the best.
keep going. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My husband and I read this together. Thinking of Aurora
