Volunteers wanted: Jide's yard after the storm

Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Jide's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.

Awka
I'm 86 and I have lived in this house in Awka for 33 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 six 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. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

    Good luck, Jide. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We're a small family in Macon but we're thinking of you.

    • Harold Welch

      Good luck, Jide. Hope this works out for you. Put this on a community board in Chattanooga this morning. Greetings from Chattanooga.

      • Shanice F. Mabaso

        I hope things turn around soon. I have a 13 year old who wants to send good wishes too. God bless.

        • Jocelyn G. Black

          Wishing you peace, Jide. Get well soon. After 29 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings.

            Rooting for you, Jide. Hope the doctors have good news.
