Carpenters wanted: an entrance ramp for Jonas

Help Jonas regain independence: a simple ramp build.

Jonas has used a wheelchair since 2025, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Jonas 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 six hours of work. Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Jonas's family will cook lunch for the team. Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

        you're not alone. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. God bless.
