A day in the garden: help Fatima in Abuja
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Fatima's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.

I'm 71 and I have lived in this house in Abuja for 24 years. After the storm in July, two large branches and a fallen fence have blocked the back door and the garden path. I can no longer manage them myself because of a heart condition.
The council has told me it will be ten weeks before they can send someone. I'd feel much safer if it were cleared sooner.
Help needed: someone with a chainsaw, plus a few people with rakes and gloves. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Thanks for sharing this. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Take care.
Sending love, Fatima. Hope this works out for you. Sent it to 15 people at work. Thinking of Abuja.
Best of luck. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Love from Siliguri.
