Sharon can't leave home - help build a ramp
Sharon uses a wheelchair and can't leave the house because of three steps at the door; we need a few hours of carpentry.

Sharon has used a wheelchair since 2024, and the house has three steps at the front door and no ramp. At the moment Sharon 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 twelve hours of work.
Tools are welcome - saws, drills, spirit levels. We'll provide refreshments, and Sharon's family will cook lunch for the team.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Rooting for you. Get well soon. I hope November is when things finally get easier. All the best
Keep going, Isaac. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
