A ramp for Siva: volunteers and tools needed
Help Siva regain independence: a simple ramp build.
🇮🇳 Mumbai, Maharashtra, India1,252 views
Siva has used a wheelchair since 2025, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Siva 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 eight hours of work.
Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Siva's family will cook lunch for the team.
Glad we found this place.

Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Sent it to 28 people at work. Love from Sylhet.
sending love, Sowmya. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Don't give up.
Wishing you peace. Looking forward to the next update. Wish I lived closer to Orlando so I could bring a meal. God bless.
Good luck, Sowmya. I hope things turn around soon
I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Blessings.
