Carpenters wanted: an entrance ramp for Young-ho

Help Young-ho regain independence: a simple ramp build.

Young-ho has used a wheelchair since 2025, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Young-ho 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 Young-ho's family will cook lunch for the team. Thank you so much.

    rooting for you, Soo-jin. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Thinking of Seoul.

        hope the doctors have good news. Wish I lived closer to Takoradi so I could bring a meal. All the best

          So sorry you're going through this, Soo-jin. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. We're a small family in Saket but we're thinking of you. Blessings

            praying for you. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
