Anil can't leave home - help build a ramp
Help Anil regain independence: a simple ramp build.
🇮🇳 Maharashtra, India225 views
Anil has used a wheelchair since 2025, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Anil 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 Anil's family will cook lunch for the team.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Rooting for you. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Kampala.
Wishing Anil a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out.
