Build a wheelchair ramp for Rashed in Pune
Help Rashed regain independence: a simple ramp build.
🇮🇳 Pune, Maharashtra, India205 views
Rashed has used a wheelchair since 2025, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Rashed 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 twelve hours of work.
Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Rashed's family will cook lunch for the team.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Thinking of you, Farhana. Your post was clear and honest. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.

Sending love. Hope this works out for you. Wish I lived closer to Manukau so I could bring a meal. Love from Syracuse.
