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

Wunmi has used a wheelchair since 2023, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Wunmi 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 Wunmi's family will cook lunch for the team.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Thinking of you and your family, Nneka. Looking forward to the next update. I hope May is when things finally get easier. All the best
thanks for sharing this. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Love from Orlando.
