The winter storm hit the families of Eastgate Lane on 1 June. My home was one of 83 damaged, and 12 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.
Funds go to building materials, water purification supplies, bedding, and food for families still in shelters.
Where the $9,350 goes:
• Roofing sheets and timber: $4,300
• Clean water and purification supplies: $640
• Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $1,600
• Food parcels for displaced families: $1,750
• Tools and labor for repairs: $1,060

Best of luck, Lucas. Projects like this are what make a place worth living in. Blessings
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Lucas.
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. roofing sheets and timber comes first ($4,300) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Thanks for asking.
best of luck, Lucas. Shared it with a few friends. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
best of luck, Lucas. Great idea, hope you get there. Put this on a community board in Riverside this morning
