Build a wheelchair ramp for Alok in Pune
Materials are donated. We need two carpenters and a helper for a weekend in Pune.
🇮🇳 Maharashtra, India608 views
Alok has used a wheelchair since 2023, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Alok 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 eight hours of work.
Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Alok's family will cook lunch for the team.
Glad we found this place.

Hope things get better soon, Naveen. It takes guts to ask. Well done.
sending strength, Naveen. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Thinking of Pune.
sending strength. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We're a small family in Geelong but we're thinking of you.
So sorry you're going through this, Naveen. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. All the best.
Good luck, Naveen. Wishing Alok a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I'm in retail myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
Looking forward to the next update. We're a small family in Medellín but we're thinking of you. Greetings from Medellín.
