A ramp for Ngozika: volunteers and tools needed

Help Ngozika regain independence: a simple ramp build.

Enugu
Ngozika has used a wheelchair since 2022, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Ngozika 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 Ngozika's family will cook lunch for the team. I hope life is good to you.
