The winter storm hit Greenfield village on 14 April. My home was one of 12 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 $7,550 goes:
• Roofing sheets and timber: $3,150
• Clean water and purification supplies: $1,050
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $790
• Food parcels for displaced families: $1,200
• Tools and labor for repairs: $1,360
Thanks for reading all this.

Good luck, Andrea. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. Don't give up
Sending love. I hope things turn around soon. My neighbor in Leicester donated after I showed her your page. Take care.
Thinking of you and your family, Andrea. Great idea, hope you get there. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care.

Sending good thoughts, Andrea. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Take care.
Thinking of you and your family. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Auckland.
Hope this works out for you. It's not much but it's yours. Thinking of Orlando!
Your post was clear and honest. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Dallas.
So sorry you're going through this, Andrea. More neighborhoods should do this. I'll check back for the next update

Hope it all works out. Shared it with a few friends. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. All the best!
Thanks for sharing this, Andrea. More neighborhoods should do this. After 22 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings.
wishing you the best. More neighborhoods should do this. I went through something like this 6 years ago and strangers helped me out
