Build a wheelchair ramp for Aarti in Surat
Help Aarti regain independence: a simple ramp build.
🇮🇳 Gujarat, India729 views
Aarti has used a wheelchair since 2023, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Aarti 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 twelve hours of work.
Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Aarti's family will cook lunch for the team.
I hope life is good to you.

Hope things get better soon, Janhavi. Wishing Aarti a smooth procedure and a full recovery
Keep going. Get well soon. Wish I lived closer to Pune so I could bring a meal.
thinking of you, Janhavi. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.
