Yard rescue for Kimberly, 78: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Kimberly's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.

I'm 78 and I have lived in this house in Los Angeles for 30 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 my hip replacement.
The council has told me it will be ten 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Wishing you the best, Kimberly. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Los Angeles
Rooting for you. Shared this with my family. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Los Angeles.
Good luck. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My neighbor in Arlington donated after I showed her your page. Greetings from Arlington
