Alamin can't leave home - help build a ramp
Materials are donated. We need two carpenters and a helper for a weekend in Cox's Bazar.
🇧🇩 Chattogram, Bangladesh600 views
Alamin has used a wheelchair since 2025, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Alamin 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 Alamin's family will cook lunch for the team.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Hope it all works out, Nahid. Get well soon. Greetings from Da Nang.
Sending love, Nahid. I hope things turn around soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Cox's Bazar
