Volunteers wanted: Angelica's yard after the storm
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Angelica's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.
🇵🇭 Quezon City, Metro Manila, Philippines698 views
I'm 82 and I have lived in this house in Quezon City for 30 years. After the storm in August, two large branches and a fallen fence have blocked the back door and the garden path. I can no longer manage them myself because of a heart condition.
The council has told me it will be ten weeks before they can send someone. I'd feel much safer if it were cleared sooner.
Help needed: a small team to cut, stack and carry away branches. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
