Badagry
Zainab has used a wheelchair since 2025, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Zainab 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 eight hours of work. Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Zainab's family will cook lunch for the team. Thank you so much.

    so sorry you're going through this. Shared this with my family. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care.

    • Wiktoria Jankowski

      Wishing you peace. Shared it with a few friends. I'm in customer support myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. God bless

        good luck, Kelechi. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. It's not much but it's yours.

        • Axel D. Parks

          Sending good thoughts, Kelechi. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. All the best.
