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

After an unsafe stairwell, I found a safe, affordable apartment in Los Angeles, and the lease starts on Wednesday. I have my elderly father, a few pieces of furniture and no money for movers.
I'm hoping for four volunteers 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 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.
Glad we found this place.

Wishing you peace, Silas. It takes guts to ask. Well done. All the best.
Thanks for sharing this, Silas. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We're a small family in Düsseldorf but we're thinking of you. God bless
hope it all works out, Silas. This could happen to any of us
everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. God bless
Best of luck, Silas. I hope things turn around soon!
