Help a family move in Freiburg - 4-hour job
Moving day on Thursday: we need four volunteers and ideally a van.

After a break-in at the old place, I found a safe, affordable apartment in Freiburg, and the lease starts on Thursday. I have a teenager and a toddler, a few pieces of furniture and no money for movers.
I'm hoping for four volunteers for about four hours. If you have a van or pickup, that would help enormously - I'll cover fuel.
The old place is on the fourth floor walk-up and the new place has just one flight of stairs. We'll do it in two trips. Lunch and cold drinks are on me.
I know this is a lot to ask of strangers. I'd be happy to share references from my landlord and my employer.
I hope life is good to you.

Thinking of you and your family, Melanie. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Love from Mombasa
hope things get better soon, Melanie. Shared this with my family. We're a small family in Newcastle upon Tyne but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Freiburg.
Thanks for sharing this, Melanie. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor in Pasig donated after I showed her your page.
wishing you the best. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My husband and I read this together.
Sending strength, Melanie. Hope you get there. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Greetings from Johannesburg
Thanks for sharing this. Shared this with my family. After 15 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Freiburg
Hang in there. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too
