The hurricane hit the Greenfield settlement on 26 June. My home was one of 39 damaged, and 9 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 $3,550 goes:
• Tools and labor for repairs: $1,700
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $1,350
• Clean water and purification supplies: $500
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

I hope things turn around soon. I'm in farming myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you
Wishing you the best, Victoria. Hope you get there. I hope October is when things finally get easier. Blessings.
Wishing you the best. Shared this with my family. Greetings from Bogotá
Stay strong. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. After 29 years in logistics I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Orlando.
Praying for you, Victoria. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. All the best.
Sending strength, Victoria. Hope this works out for you.
Thanks for sharing this, Victoria. Great idea, hope you get there. Don't give up. Thinking of Orlando
Keep going. Hope this works out for you. I have a 13 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Take care.
Thanks for sharing this, Victoria. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Orlando
keep going, Victoria. Hope this works out for you. It's not much but it's yours. God bless.
