Clear storm damage from Sota's garden in Kitakyushu
Garden rescue day in Kitakyushu: bring gloves and a rake.
🇯🇵 Kitakyushu, Fukuoka, Japan1,573 views
I'm 71 and I have lived in this house in Kitakyushu for 28 years. After the storm in May, 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 recent fall.
The council has told me it will be ten weeks before they can send someone. I'd feel much safer if it were cleared sooner.
Help needed: a small team to cut, stack and carry away branches. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

Sending strength, Sota. Looking forward to the next update. My neighbor in Thủ Đức donated after I showed her your page. Blessings
Hang in there, Sota. Your post was clear and honest. I have a 14 year old who wants to send good wishes too
Hope things get better soon, Sota. Get well soon. Sent it to 32 people at work. Love from Christchurch.
Hope it all works out. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Take care
Praying for you, Sota. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. After 16 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless.
Take care. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I went through something like this 9 years ago and strangers helped me out
Wishing you the best, Sota. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
Take care. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. All the best.
Good luck, Sota. Your post was clear and honest. Blessings.
a colleague of mine might know someone for this in Fukuoka. I'll ask around and let you know.
Keep going, Sota. Shared this with my family. Greetings from Berlin.
Thanks for sharing this, Sota. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Sent it to 7 people at work. God bless.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I have a 12 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Thinking of Kitakyushu
