Build a wheelchair ramp for Guadalupe in Ciudad de México

Materials are donated. We need two carpenters and a helper for a weekend in Ciudad de México.

Ciudad de México
Guadalupe has used a wheelchair since 2024, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Guadalupe 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 Guadalupe's family will cook lunch for the team. Thank you so much.
