Need strong backs and a van: moving Santiago to safer housing
Moving day on Saturday: we need four volunteers and ideally a van.

After the rent increase, I found a safe, affordable apartment in Cambridge, 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 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 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.
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

Keep going. This could happen to any of us. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. All the best.
So sorry you're going through this, Santiago. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Put this on a community board in Thane this morning. Thinking of Cambridge.
