The wildfire hit the families of Eastgate Lane on 30 May. My home was one of 13 damaged, and 4 families are still in temporary shelter at a borrowed warehouse.
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 $1,850 goes:
• Roofing sheets and timber: $760
• Clean water and purification supplies: $190
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $220
• Food parcels for displaced families: $290
• Tools and labor for repairs: $390
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Coyoacán
Thank you. If you're in Coyoacán I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks for asking.
Hope things get better soon, Julián. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer
how is Julián doing now?
Stay strong, Julián. Great idea, hope you get there. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Coyoacán.
rooting for you, Julián. It takes guts to ask. Well done. God bless
Stay strong, Julián. Looking forward to the next update.
so sorry you're going through this. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. Greetings from Porto Alegre.
