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

Sadie has used a wheelchair since 2024, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Sadie 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 six hours of work.
Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Sadie's family will cook lunch for the team.
Thank you for reading my story.

Wishing you peace. Wishing Sadie a smooth procedure and a full recovery. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. God bless.
