Volunteers wanted: Sami's yard after the storm
Garden rescue day in Aswan: bring gloves and a rake.
🇪🇬 81556, Aswan, Aswan, Egypt389 views
I'm 73 and I have lived in this house in Aswan for 30 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 arthritis.
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: a small team to cut, stack and carry away branches. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
Thank you for reading my story.

Praying for you. Hope this works out for you. I'll check back for the next update. Greetings from Bristol.
I hope things turn around soon. Put this on a community board in Syracuse this morning. Blessings!
Rooting for you, Sami. Hope this works out for you. Wish I lived closer to Shinjuku so I could bring a meal.
