Zaria
The house fire that spread across the block hit the Greenfield district on 27 April. My home was one of 79 damaged, and 14 families are still in temporary shelter at the local school gym. 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 $1,250 goes: • Roofing sheets and timber: $560 • Clean water and purification supplies: $150 • Bedding, blankets and mattresses: $125 • Food parcels for displaced families: $210 • Tools and labor for repairs: $205 Thank you so much. - Esther

  • Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. We're a small family in Lagos but we're thinking of you. God bless

    • More neighborhoods should do this. I have a 8 year old who wants to send good wishes too

      • keep going, Esther. Hope you get there. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.

        • Sending good thoughts. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Blessings!

          • wishing you peace, Esther. It takes guts to ask. Well done.
