A ramp for Divina: volunteers and tools needed
Divina uses a wheelchair and can't leave the house because of three steps at the door; we need a few hours of carpentry.

Divina has used a wheelchair since 2024, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Divina 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 accessibility guideline for gradient, which is why a person with building experience is important. We estimate eight hours of work.
Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Divina's family will cook lunch for the team.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Thanks for sharing this, Faith. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My husband and I read this together. All the best
You're not alone. Hope the doctors have good news. My neighbor in Zapopan donated after I showed her your page. Blessings.
