A ramp for Neelam: volunteers and tools needed

Help Neelam regain independence: a simple ramp build.

Neelam has used a wheelchair since 2021, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Neelam 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 Neelam's family will cook lunch for the team. 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. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Greetings from Quezon City
