Dimas can't leave home - help build a ramp
Help Dimas regain independence: a simple ramp build.
🇮🇩 Malang, East Java, Indonesia1,008 views
Dimas has used a wheelchair since 2023, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Dimas 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 twelve hours of work.
Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Dimas's family will cook lunch for the team.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Wishing you peace, Ayu. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Love from Lahore.

I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Wish I lived closer to Saint-Étienne so I could bring a meal. All the best.
You're not alone, Ayu. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.
Sending love, Ayu. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Tel Aviv.
Hope things get better soon. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I went through something like this 2 years ago and strangers helped me out
Wishing you peace, Ayu. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't give up. Take care
thinking of you and your family, Ayu. Hope you get there. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Malang.
