Build a wheelchair ramp for Ganesh in Prayagraj
Materials are donated. We need two carpenters and a helper for a weekend in Prayagraj.

Ganesh has used a wheelchair since 2022, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Ganesh 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 eight hours of work.
Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Ganesh's family will cook lunch for the team.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Wishing you peace, Sundar. I hope things turn around soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Prayagraj!
