Hina can't leave home - help build a ramp
Help Hina regain independence: a simple ramp build.
🇯🇵 Kobe, Hyogo, Japan841 views
Hina has used a wheelchair since 2024, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Hina 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 Hina's family will cook lunch for the team.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

hope things get better soon. This could happen to any of us. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Blessings.
