We lost everything in the landslide: help Greenfield village start over

Neighbors in Greenfield village are rebuilding after the landslide; every contribution goes to materials and supplies.

The landslide hit Greenfield village on 12 March. My home was one of 16 damaged, and 12 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 $2,250 goes: • Clean water and purification supplies: $170 • Tools and labor for repairs: $680 • Roofing sheets and timber: $1,200 • Food parcels for displaced families: $200 Thanks for being kind about this.

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

      • Lorena Júlia SilvaOwnerAnswer

        Clean water and purification supplies is $170 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. I'll keep the page updated.
