Devi can't leave home - help build a ramp
Help Devi regain independence: a simple ramp build.
🇮🇳 Uttar Pradesh, India1,583 views
Devi has used a wheelchair since 2024, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Devi 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 Devi's family will cook lunch for the team.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

good luck. This could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to Agra so I could bring a meal. Love from Tehuacán.
Keep going, Srinivas. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. God bless
Wishing you the best. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Put this on a community board in Johannesburg this morning. Blessings.
