Volunteers wanted: Heloísa's yard after the storm
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Heloísa's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.

I'm 75 and I have lived in this house in Duque de Caxias for 45 years. After the storm in May, 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: two people with loppers and a wheelbarrow. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Keep going, Heloísa. Hope this works out for you. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Duque de Caxias.
Take care, Heloísa. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Take care.
your post was clear and honest. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Love from Wrocław.
Thinking of you and your family. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Thinking of Duque de Caxias.
