Need strong backs and a van: moving Shahana to safer housing
Shahana has found a safe new apartment in Dhaka and needs help moving heavy furniture on Sunday.

After an unsafe stairwell, I found a safe, affordable apartment in Dhaka, and the lease starts on Sunday. I have my elderly father, a few pieces of furniture and no money for movers.
I'm hoping for 3-4 helpers 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 third floor with no elevator 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.
Glad we found this place.

I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Sent it to 36 people at work.
Sending strength, Shahana. Hope this works out for you. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Love from Gaziantep
Take care. Shared it with a few friends. After 15 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
thinking of you, Shahana. Shared this with my family. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from Stockholm.
You're not alone, Shahana. It takes guts to ask. Well done
