Volunteers wanted: Ilham's yard after the storm
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Ilham's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.
🇮🇩 Yogyakarta, Yogyakarta, Indonesia95 views
I'm 72 and I have lived in this house in Yogyakarta for 48 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 my hip replacement.
The council has told me it will be eight 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.

thinking of you, Ilham. Wishing Ilham a smooth procedure and a full recovery. After 22 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Take care, Ilham. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. After 27 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings
