Yard rescue for Khadija, 85: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Khadija's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.

I'm 85 and I have lived in this house in Abuja for 38 years. After the storm in March, 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: 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.
Glad we found this place.

Thanks for sharing this, Khadija. It takes guts to ask. Well done!
Sending good thoughts, Khadija. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Put this on a community board in Ciudad de México this morning. Blessings.
