Need strong backs and a van: moving Jacob to safer housing
Jacob has found a safe new apartment in Sheffield and needs help moving heavy furniture on Monday.

After mold in the old building became a health issue for my child, I found a safe, affordable apartment in Sheffield, and the lease starts on Monday. 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 fourth floor walk-up 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

Take care, Jacob. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless.
