A ramp for Artem: volunteers and tools needed
Materials are donated. We need two carpenters and a helper for a weekend in Kyiv.

Artem has used a wheelchair since 2023, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Artem can only go outside when two neighbors are available to lift the chair.
The materials (treated timber, screws and non-slip surface) have been donated by a local lumberyard. We need a carpenter or two to measure, cut and build, plus a helper or two.
The ramp has to meet the building-code slope requirement, which is why a person with building experience is important. We estimate six hours of work.
Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Artem's family will cook lunch for the team.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Wishing you peace, Petro. Hope the doctors have good news. Put this on a community board in Dhaka this morning. Thinking of Kyiv.
You're not alone, Petro. Shared it with a few friends. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. All the best.
Wishing Artem a smooth procedure and a full recovery. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry
Praying for you, Petro. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick.
