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

I'm 85 and I have lived in this house in Hồ Chí Minh City for 37 years. After the storm in April, 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 recent fall.
The council has told me it will be six 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Take care, Hiếu. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. All the best.
hope things get better soon. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We're a small family in Pune but we're thinking of you. Take care.
thinking of you and your family. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Take care
Thinking of you. Hope you get there. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Love from Pune.
sending love, Hiếu. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Love from Belfast
Keep going, Hiếu. Hope you get there. All the best.
