Clear storm damage from Scarlett's garden in New Orleans
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Scarlett's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.

I'm 77 and I have lived in this house in New Orleans for 41 years. After the storm in February, two large branches and a fallen fence have blocked the back door and the garden path. I can no longer manage them myself because of a heart condition.
The council has told me it will be eight weeks before they can send someone. I'd feel much safer if it were cleared sooner.
Help needed: two people with loppers and a wheelbarrow. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Thanks for sharing this, Scarlett. Looking forward to the next update. Greetings from Khulna.
I hope things turn around soon. Wish I lived closer to Flint so I could bring a meal
Thinking of you, Scarlett. Shared it with a few friends. Don't give up. Greetings from Bekasi.
praying for you, Scarlett. Shared this with my family. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Take care.
You're not alone, Scarlett. Gave what I could, wish it was more. God bless.
