Ghassan can't leave home - help build a ramp
Materials are donated. We need two carpenters and a helper for a weekend in 6th of October City.
🇪🇬 6th of October City, Giza, Egypt242 views
Ghassan has used a wheelchair since 2025, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Ghassan 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 Ghassan's family will cook lunch for the team.
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

Keep going, Mona. Hope you get there. Wish I lived closer to Badagry so I could bring a meal. Love from Tarkwa.
stay strong, Mona. Shared it with a few friends. I have a 11 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
sending strength, Mona. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Sent it to 4 people at work. Greetings from Gujranwala.
Keep going, Mona. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. God bless.
