Yard rescue for André, 84: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking André's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.
🇧🇷 Campinas, São Paulo, Brazil196 views
I'm 84 and I have lived in this house in Campinas for 46 years. After the storm in July, 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 twelve 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.

Thinking of you, André. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side!
Hope it all works out, André. Hope you get there. All the best.
Keep going, André. Hope you get there. I went through something like this 6 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care.
