Volunteers wanted: Márcia's yard after the storm
Garden rescue day in Santos: bring gloves and a rake.
🇧🇷 Santos, São Paulo, Brazil1,288 views
I'm 88 and I have lived in this house in Santos for 46 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 poor eyesight.
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.
Glad we found this place.

Wishing you the best, Márcia. Hope you get there. It's not much but it's yours. Love from Makassar.
Thinking of you, Márcia. Hope the doctors have good news. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
gave what I could, wish it was more. I went through something like this 12 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Sydney.
