Build a wheelchair ramp for Temitope in Badagry
Materials are donated. We need two carpenters and a helper for a weekend in Badagry.
🇳🇬 Badagry, Lagos, Nigeria836 views
Temitope has used a wheelchair since 2024, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Temitope 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 ten hours of work.
Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Temitope's family will cook lunch for the team.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Wishing you the best, Kehinde. Hope you get there. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Thinking of Badagry
rooting for you, Kehinde. This could happen to any of us.
Hope this works out for you. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Badagry.
Sending love, Kehinde. Your post was clear and honest. I have a 13 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
sending good thoughts, Kehinde. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I'm in accounting myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. All the best.
