Moving day volunteers: Gonzalo's family relocating in Iztapalapa
Moving day on Tuesday: we need anyone with a van and ideally a van.
🇲🇽 09060, Iztapalapa, Ciudad de México, Mexico1,066 views
After an unsafe stairwell, I found a safe, affordable apartment in Iztapalapa, and the lease starts on Tuesday. I have three kids, a few pieces of furniture and no money for movers.
I'm hoping for anyone with a van for about six 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 a ground-floor entrance. 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

You're not alone. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
Thanks for sharing this. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
Hang in there. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.

sending strength, Gonzalo. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My husband and I read this together.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. Wish I lived closer to Tarragona so I could bring a meal!
A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Iztapalapa.
wishing you peace, Gonzalo. Looking forward to the next update. Greetings from Ikeja.
wishing you the best, Gonzalo. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Take care.
I hope things turn around soon. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.
Sending strength, Gonzalo. Your post was clear and honest. Blessings.
