A ramp for Tuấn: volunteers and tools needed
Tuấn uses a wheelchair and cannot leave the house because of three steps at the door; we need a few hours of carpentry.
🇻🇳 Thủ Đức, Hồ Chí Minh City, Vietnam1,577 views
Tuấn has used a wheelchair since 2024, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Tuấn 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 Tuấn's family will cook lunch for the team.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

hope things get better soon. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Greetings from Aurangabad.
Hope things get better soon, Vinh. Hope you get there. After 15 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything
Best of luck, Vinh. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. It's not much but it's yours. God bless
Shared it with a few friends. I hope September is when things finally get easier. All the best
You're not alone, Vinh. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. I'm in accounting myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you
Praying for you, Vinh. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side.
