Carpenters wanted: an entrance ramp for Rahul
Rahul uses a wheelchair and can't leave the house because of three steps at the door; we need a few hours of carpentry.
🇮🇳 Mumbai, Maharashtra, India232 views
Rahul has used a wheelchair since 2024, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Rahul 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 building-code slope requirement, 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 Rahul's family will cook lunch for the team.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Best of luck, Vijay. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Greetings from Eldoret
Hope things get better soon, Vijay. This could happen to any of us. I'm in customer support myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Thinking of Mumbai.
