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

Logan has used a wheelchair since 2023, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Logan 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 local accessibility standard of 1:12 slope, 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 Logan's family will cook lunch for the team.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

best of luck. Shared this with my family. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Greetings from Los Angeles.
This could happen to any of us. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of San Diego
thinking of you. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.
Stay strong, Bella. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. It's not much but it's yours. Thinking of San Diego.
I hope things turn around soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. All the best.
