Help Derek move out of an unsafe apartment this Friday
A short, concrete way to help: a few hours of lifting and loading in Winston-Salem.

After my landlord sold the building, I found a safe, affordable apartment in Winston-Salem, and the lease starts on Friday. I have my elderly father, a few pieces of furniture and no money for movers.
I'm hoping for a few strong people for about five 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.

Thinking of you and your family. Shared it with a few friends. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Thinking of Winston-Salem.
Good luck, Derek. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. It's not much but it's yours. All the best
Wishing you the best, Derek. Hope you get there. Take care
Take care, Derek. Gave what I could, wish it was more
