Carpenters wanted: an entrance ramp for Rita

Materials are donated. We need two carpenters and a helper for a weekend in Dharan.

Dharan
Rita has used a wheelchair since 2024, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Rita 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 twelve hours of work. Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Rita's family will cook lunch for the team. Thanks for being kind about this.

    Your post was clear and honest. I went through something like this 9 years ago and strangers helped me out!

      Wishing you peace, Kabita. Shared it with a few friends. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. God bless.

        Wishing you peace. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I'm in logistics myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. All the best.

          Sending strength. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Bristol.
