Build a wheelchair ramp for Thắng in Thủ Đức
Materials are donated. We need two carpenters and a helper for a weekend in Thủ Đức.
🇻🇳 Hồ Chí Minh City, Vietnam279 views
Thắng has used a wheelchair since 2025, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Thắng 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 six hours of work.
Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Thắng's family will cook lunch for the team.
Thanks for being kind about this.

thinking of you and your family. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Thủ Đức.
You're not alone, Như. Hope the doctors have good news. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from Kochi.
