Need strong backs and a van: moving Puja to safer housing

A short, concrete way to help: a few hours of lifting and loading in Dhaka.

Dhaka
After mold in the old building became a health issue for my child, I found a safe, affordable apartment in Dhaka, and the lease starts on Saturday. I have a teenager and a toddler, a few pieces of furniture and no money for movers. I'm hoping for anyone with a van 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 second floor 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. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
