Carpenters wanted: an entrance ramp for Hye-won
Materials are donated. We need two carpenters and a helper for a weekend in Gangnam.

Hye-won has used a wheelchair since 2025, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Hye-won 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 ten hours of work.
Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Hye-won's family will cook lunch for the team.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Thinking of you. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. My neighbor in Ikeja donated after I showed her your page. All the best!
