Sameer has used a wheelchair since 2024, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Sameer 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 twelve hours of work. Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Sameer'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.

      • Thinking of you and your family. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I went through something like this 4 years ago and strangers helped me out

        • Rooting for you. This could happen to any of us. I have a 17 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
