The typhoon hit the Lakeview settlement on 22 April. My home was one of 75 damaged, and 6 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. Funds go to building materials, water purification supplies, bedding, and food for families still in shelters. Where the $500 goes: • Food parcels for displaced families: $240 • Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $130 • Clean water and purification supplies: $130 Thank you so much.

    Trustworthy helper

    I can't speak highly enough about this helper. They were available when I needed them, supportive when I felt lost, and practical in their solutions.

    Very responsive and caring

    The support I received was beyond what I expected. Not only did they help with the immediate need, but they also provided guidance for long-term solutions. I'm forever grateful.

  • I hope things turn around soon. Wish I lived closer to Fort Portal so I could bring a meal. God bless!

    • good luck, Liza. Gave what I could, wish it was more. After 25 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless.

      • Shared this with my family. Greetings from Aurangabad.
