Danjuma has used a wheelchair since 2024, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Danjuma 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 accessibility guideline for gradient, 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 Danjuma's family will cook lunch for the team. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

      Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Arusha.

      • stay strong, Adaeze. Shared this with my family. Love from La Plata.

        • Wishing you the best, Adaeze. Looking forward to the next update. My neighbor in Hyderabad donated after I showed her your page. All the best.

          • Stay strong, Adaeze. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't be hard on yourself for asking
