Need strong backs and a van: moving Citlali to safer housing
A short, concrete way to help: a few hours of lifting and loading in Palmira.
🇨🇴 763169, Palmira, Valle del Cauca, Colombia945 views
After the rent increase, I found a safe, affordable apartment in Palmira, and the lease starts on Tuesday. I have three kids, a few pieces of furniture and no money for movers.
I'm hoping for four volunteers 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 fourth floor walk-up 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

Wishing you peace, Citlali. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I have a 17 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Take care.

hang in there, Citlali. This could happen to any of us. I went through something like this 12 years ago and strangers helped me out
Thinking of you and your family, Citlali. Shared this with my family. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. All the best.
Good luck, Citlali. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Wish I lived closer to Rohini so I could bring a meal.

Sending love. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Put this on a community board in Montpellier this morning. Thinking of Palmira.
