Moving day volunteers: Ella's family relocating in Christchurch
A short, concrete way to help: a few hours of lifting and loading in Christchurch.

After the rent increase, I found a safe, affordable apartment in Christchurch, and the lease starts on Saturday. I have three kids, 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 second floor 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Wishing you the best. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I'm in public service myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Greetings from Guarulhos.
wishing you peace. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Wish I lived closer to Kyiv so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Christchurch.
So sorry you're going through this, Ella. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My neighbor in Abuja donated after I showed her your page. Take care.
