Volunteers wanted: Beatrice's yard after the storm
Beatrice, 72, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.
🇺🇬 Entebbe, Central Region, Uganda527 views
I'm 72 and I have lived in this house in Entebbe for 40 years. After the storm in March, 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 twelve weeks before they can send someone. I'd feel much safer if it were cleared sooner.
Help needed: someone with a chainsaw, plus a few people with rakes and gloves. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Thinking of you, Beatrice. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't give up. Take care.
So sorry you're going through this. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care.
Hope you get there. Thinking of Entebbe
