Build a wheelchair ramp for Caio in Ribeirão Preto
Caio uses a wheelchair and cannot leave the house because of three steps at the door; we need a few hours of carpentry.
🇧🇷 São Paulo, Brazil736 views
Caio has used a wheelchair since 2025, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Caio 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 Caio's family will cook lunch for the team.
I hope life is good to you.
