Carpenters wanted: an entrance ramp for Obinna
Help Obinna regain independence: a simple ramp build.
π³π¬ Lagos, Nigeria50 views
Obinna has used a wheelchair since 2024, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Obinna 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 Obinna's family will cook lunch for the team.
Thank you so much.
