A ramp for Sri: volunteers and tools needed
Sri uses a wheelchair and can't leave the house because of three steps at the door; we need a few hours of carpentry.
🇮🇩 Kediri, East Java, Indonesia1,377 views
Sri has used a wheelchair since 2025, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Sri 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 ten hours of work.
Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Sri's family will cook lunch for the team.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Thanks for sharing this, Rudi. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Love from Gdańsk
Hope it all works out. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor in Bloemfontein donated after I showed her your page. Greetings from Bloemfontein

Take care, Rudi. Gave what I could, wish it was more. After 23 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Sending love, Rudi. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected
Thanks for sharing this, Rudi. Shared this with my family. All the best.
good luck, Rudi. Shared it with a few friends. Put this on a community board in Detroit this morning.
Thinking of you, Rudi. Hope you get there. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Pune.
