Campaign Description
A family has been left in a very difficult situation after the shack they were living in was destroyed by fire. The fire took almost everything they had, including the school uniforms belonging to the children.
The mother is currently staying in rented accommodation around Sacca, but she would like to rebuild her home so that her family can have a safe and stable place to live again.
She is not asking for luxury. She mainly needs basic building materials such as roofing sheets and timber/planks to rebuild the shack.
The situation has also affected her children’s education. Their school uniforms were destroyed in the fire, and because the family currently cannot afford new uniforms, stationery and transport, the children are presently unable to attend school.

- 🏠 Roofing sheets for rebuilding the home
