Need strong backs and a van: moving Luís to safer housing
Moving day on Thursday: we need 3-4 helpers and ideally a van.

After the rent increase, I found a safe, affordable apartment in Campinas, and the lease starts on Thursday. I have three kids, a few pieces of furniture and no money for movers.
I'm hoping for 3-4 helpers 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 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.

Thanks for sharing this. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My neighbor in Pretoria donated after I showed her your page. Greetings from Pretoria!
