Build a wheelchair ramp for Letícia in Duque de Caxias
Letícia uses a wheelchair and can't leave the house because of three steps at the door; we need a few hours of carpentry.
🇧🇷 Rio de Janeiro, Brazil630 views
Letícia has used a wheelchair since 2024, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Letícia 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 six hours of work.
Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Letícia's family will cook lunch for the team.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Praying for you, Davi. Shared this with my family. Blessings.
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Thinking of Duque de Caxias
Take care, Davi. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Blessings.
good luck. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We're a small family in Nashik but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Duque de Caxias.
take care. Wishing Letícia a smooth procedure and a full recovery
