Need strong backs and a van: moving Maricel to safer housing
Moving day on Friday: we need a few strong people and ideally a van.
🇵🇭 1409, Caloocan, Metro Manila, Philippines874 views
After my landlord sold the building, I found a safe, affordable apartment in Caloocan, and the lease starts on Friday. I have a teenager and a toddler, a few pieces of furniture and no money for movers.
I'm hoping for a few strong people for about three 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Thanks for sharing this, Maricel. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. God bless.
You're not alone. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Thinking of Caloocan.
Shared it with a few friends. Love from Madurai.
Thinking of you, Maricel. Shared it with a few friends. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
Thanks for sharing this, Maricel. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Put this on a community board in Dodoma this morning. All the best.
So sorry you're going through this, Maricel. Your post was clear and honest.
Thinking of you and your family, Maricel. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
thanks for sharing this, Maricel. Hope you get there.
take care, Maricel. This could happen to any of us. Thinking of Caloocan!
wishing you the best, Maricel. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.
Shared it with a few friends. Put this on a community board in Surakarta this morning. Love from Surakarta.
You're not alone, Maricel. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care.
