The wildfire hit the Northside district on 1 August. My home was one of 53 damaged, and 7 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.
We buy supplies locally and in bulk, so the money goes further. Receipts and photos will be posted in updates.
Where the $3,800 goes:
• Clean water and purification supplies: $630
• Tools and labor for repairs: $2,150
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $1,020
Thanks for being kind about this.

Hang in there. Shared this with my family. My neighbor in Lagos donated after I showed her your page. Love from Lagos
Wishing you the best, Eva. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Liverpool.
so sorry you're going through this, Eva. Shared it with a few friends.
