Carpenters wanted: an entrance ramp for Su-bin

Su-bin uses a wheelchair and can't leave the house because of three steps at the door; we need a few hours of carpentry.

Su-bin has used a wheelchair since 2023, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Su-bin 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 local accessibility standard of 1:12 slope, 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 Su-bin's family will cook lunch for the team. Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

      You're not alone, Young-ja. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Thinking of Incheon.

        Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. All the best.

          This could happen to any of us. Thinking of Incheon
