Carpenters wanted: an entrance ramp for Rabia
Materials are donated. We need two carpenters and a helper for a weekend in Gujranwala.
🇵🇰 Punjab, Pakistan372 views
Rabia has used a wheelchair since 2025, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Rabia 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 Rabia's family will cook lunch for the team.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

hope things get better soon, Bisma. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Sent it to 16 people at work.
look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. We're a small family in Jakarta Selatan but we're thinking of you!
hope things get better soon. Shared this with my family. Greetings from Chattogram.
Hang in there. This could happen to any of us. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Take care
