Need strong backs and a van: moving Madhavan to safer housing
A short, concrete way to help: a few hours of lifting and loading in Kolkata.
๐ฎ๐ณ Kolkata, West Bengal, India670 views
After the rent increase, I found a safe, affordable apartment in Kolkata, and the lease starts on Tuesday. I have a teenager and a toddler, a few pieces of furniture and no money for movers.
I'm hoping for four volunteers 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 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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
