Carpenters wanted: an entrance ramp for Romeo
Materials are donated. We need two carpenters and a helper for a weekend in Makati.

Romeo has used a wheelchair since 2025, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Romeo 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 Romeo's family will cook lunch for the team.
Glad we found this place.

You're not alone, Kristine. Hope the doctors have good news. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Makati.
