The wildfire hit the Lakeview settlement on 24 March. My home was one of 81 damaged, and 8 families are still in temporary shelter at the community 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 $3,400 goes:
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $620
• Clean water and purification supplies: $830
• Roofing sheets and timber: $1,950
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Sending love, Danielle. Shared it with a few friends. God bless.
Hang in there. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too!
Good luck. Shared this with my family. Put this on a community board in Niterói this morning
Thanks for sharing this. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Thinking of San Francisco
You're not alone, Danielle. Shared it with a few friends. My neighbor in Howrah donated after I showed her your page. Take care
Praying for you, Danielle. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. It's not much but it's yours. All the best
Hope it all works out, Danielle. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Love from Thane.
Rooting for you, Danielle. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Thinking of San Francisco.
