🇳🇵 Koshi, Nepal1,221 views
Hari has used a wheelchair since 2025, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Hari 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 ten hours of work.
Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Hari's family will cook lunch for the team.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Sending good thoughts, Laxmi. Shared this with my family. God bless.
Hang in there. Hope this works out for you. We're a small family in Fresno but we're thinking of you.

Rooting for you, Laxmi. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
