I'm 92 and I have lived in this house in Tlaquepaque for 38 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 a recent fall.
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: two people with loppers and a wheelbarrow. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Thanks for sharing this, Rafael. Shared this with my family. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Kathmandu.
