Materials are donated. We need two carpenters and a helper for a weekend in Tiruchirappalli.
🇮🇳 Tamil Nadu, India555 views
Pankaj has used a wheelchair since 2025, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Pankaj can only go outside when two neighbors are available to lift the chair.
The materials (treated timber, screws and non-slip surface) have been donated by a local lumberyard. We need a carpenter or two to measure, cut and build, plus a helper or two.
The ramp has to meet the building-code slope requirement, which is why a person with building experience is important. We estimate eight hours of work.
Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Pankaj's family will cook lunch for the team.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

thinking of you, Yamini. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I'll check back for the next update. All the best.
Sending good thoughts, Yamini. It takes guts to ask. Well done. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Caxias do Sul.
Wishing you peace, Yamini. Hope this works out for you. My husband and I read this together. God bless.
Sending strength, Yamini. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
