Need strong backs and a van: moving Maurício to safer housing
A short, concrete way to help: a few hours of lifting and loading in Olinda.

After an unsafe stairwell, I found a safe, affordable apartment in Olinda, and the lease starts on Monday. I have two children, a few pieces of furniture and no money for movers.
I'm hoping for anyone with a van 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Take care, Maurício. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Put this on a community board in San Diego this morning. Blessings.
Take care, Maurício. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Love from Erie
Best of luck, Maurício. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Blessings.
Stay strong, Maurício. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. All the best.
Hang in there, Maurício. Looking forward to the next update. Greetings from Faisalabad!
Gave what I could, wish it was more. I hope October is when things finally get easier!
Sending good thoughts, Maurício. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Please keep us posted. Love from Mumbai.
