Need strong backs and a van: moving Shefali to safer housing
A short, concrete way to help: a few hours of lifting and loading in Dhaka.
🇧🇩 Dhaka, Dhaka, Bangladesh208 views
After the rent increase, I found a safe, affordable apartment in Dhaka, and the lease starts on Thursday. I have my elderly father, a few pieces of furniture and no money for movers.
I'm hoping for 3-4 helpers for about six 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 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

Thinking of you, Shefali. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. My neighbor in Mukono donated after I showed her your page. Take care.
Take care. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We're a small family in Johannesburg but we're thinking of you. Blessings
wishing you the best, Shefali. Your post was clear and honest. After 13 years in logistics I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Thinking of you, Shefali. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Dhaka.
