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

After a break-in at the old place, I found a safe, affordable apartment in Wollongong, and the lease starts on Saturday. I have my elderly father, a few pieces of furniture and no money for movers.
I'm hoping for 3-4 helpers for about five 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

Rooting for you, Grayson. It takes guts to ask. Well done. After 26 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Stay strong, Grayson. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I have a 13 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Love from Breda.
Keep going, Grayson. Shared it with a few friends. My neighbor in Aurangabad donated after I showed her your page. Take care.
Sending good thoughts, Grayson. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from Bari.
I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Thinking of Wollongong
So sorry you're going through this, Grayson. Shared it with a few friends. All the best.
