Maxim can't leave home - help build a ramp
Maxim uses a wheelchair and can't leave the house because of three steps at the door; we need a few hours of carpentry.
🇺🇦 Kyiv, Kyiv, Ukraine1,388 views
Maxim has used a wheelchair since 2024, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Maxim 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 six hours of work.
Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Maxim's family will cook lunch for the team.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Sending strength, Evgeny. Shared it with a few friends. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust!
So sorry you're going through this, Evgeny. Looking forward to the next update. Love from Santos
Good luck, Evgeny. Hope you get there.
Keep going. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Love from Berlin
keep going. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double
thanks for sharing this, Evgeny. Wishing Maxim a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. All the best.
