Carpenters wanted: an entrance ramp for Việt
Việt uses a wheelchair and can't leave the house because of three steps at the door; we need a few hours of carpentry.
🇻🇳 Cần Thơ, Cần Thơ, Vietnam803 views
Việt has used a wheelchair since 2024, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Việt 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 Việt's family will cook lunch for the team.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Sending good thoughts, Thắng. I hope things turn around soon. Wish I lived closer to Salem so I could bring a meal. All the best.
Thinking of you and your family. Hope this works out for you. I'm in public service myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Thinking of Cần Thơ!
Wishing Việt a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. All the best.
