Rebuilding Together San Diego is working with various sponsors to help people in the Shelltown area whose homes were destroyed by the Jan. 22 floods.
For many San Diegans, Jan. 22 may seem like a long time ago, but for those who were hit hardest by the historic floods, there are constant reminders of that day, especially as they struggle to rebuild.On Yama Street, the Ramirez family lost everything they owned. Then, as they tried to rebuild, the fans and tools they were using to do the work were stolen when burglars ransacked the neighborhood.
Maria Ramirez, the family’s matriarch, said despite the hardships they’ve been through over the last nine months, they’re grateful. “All the people who come are like angels that God sent to us, to help us. And we say always, God bless you,” she said.
