Build a wheelchair ramp for Ajay in Mumbai

Help Ajay regain independence: a simple ramp build.

Ajay has used a wheelchair since 2022, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Ajay 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 accessibility guideline for gradient, 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 Ajay's family will cook lunch for the team. Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

      Keep going, Meena. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. My neighbor in Albuquerque donated after I showed her your page. Blessings

              Praying for you. Hope you get there. I went through something like this 9 years ago and strangers helped me out.
