Farah can't leave home - help build a ramp
Help Farah regain independence: a simple ramp build.
🇪🇬 Luxor, Luxor, Egypt1,365 views
Farah has used a wheelchair since 2023, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Farah 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 twelve hours of work.
Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Farah's family will cook lunch for the team.
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

Praying for you, Ghassan. Gave what I could, wish it was more. All the best
Stay strong, Ghassan. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Love from Lagos.
Praying for you, Ghassan. Get well soon. I'm in hospitality myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. All the best.
