Build a wheelchair ramp for Aleksandra in Warsaw
Help Aleksandra regain independence: a simple ramp build.
🇵🇱 Warsaw, Masovia, Poland804 views
Aleksandra has used a wheelchair since 2023, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Aleksandra 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 ten hours of work.
Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Aleksandra's family will cook lunch for the team.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Praying for you, Paweł. I hope things turn around soon. Take care
wishing you peace. Shared it with a few friends. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. God bless.
Wishing you peace, Paweł. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.
