Help Aditya patch the roof before the next storm
Aditya, a widowed grandmother, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 2-weekend roof repair in Makassar.
🇮🇩 Makassar, South Sulawesi, Indonesia887 views
I'm a widowed grandmother living in Makassar. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the kids' bedroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $480, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the shingles and underlay. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for anyone handy who can help over one long weekend.
Experience helps, but it isn't essential - I'll have a licensed roofer supervising for safety. All you need is work boots and a hat. I'll provide lunch, water and lots of thanks.
The work will be done on the ground and roof with proper harnesses. If you can only help for a few hours, that's welcome too.
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

So sorry you're going through this, Aditya. Looking forward to the next update. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best.
Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Greetings from Agra
Best of luck. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. All the best.
