Help Susana move out of an unsafe apartment this Saturday
A short, concrete way to help: a few hours of lifting and loading in Medellín.

After the rent increase, I found a safe, affordable apartment in Medellín, and the lease starts on Saturday. I have a teenager and a toddler, a few pieces of furniture and no money for movers.
I'm hoping for 3-4 helpers for about three hours. If you have a van or pickup, that would help enormously - I'll cover fuel.
The old place is on the third floor with no elevator 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.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

thinking of you. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. After 27 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
