Build a wheelchair ramp for Khalid in Faisalabad

Help Khalid regain independence: a simple ramp build.

Faisalabad
Khalid has used a wheelchair since 2025, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Khalid 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 local accessibility standard of 1:12 slope, 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 Khalid's family will cook lunch for the team. I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

        Thinking of you and your family. Shared this with my family. After 8 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything
