Moving day volunteers: Fiona's family relocating in Paarl
A short, concrete way to help: a few hours of lifting and loading in Paarl.
🇿🇦 Paarl, Western Cape, South Africa287 views
After my landlord sold the building, I found a safe, affordable apartment in Paarl, and the lease starts on Wednesday. I have three kids, a few pieces of furniture and no money for movers.
I'm hoping for a few strong people for about four 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 an elevator. 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Hang in there, Fiona. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I'll check back for the next update. All the best.
hope things get better soon, Fiona. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Thinking of Paarl
Sending love. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Greetings from San Diego!
