Help Anisa patch the roof before the next storm
Anisa, a retired bus driver, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 1-weekend roof repair in Magelang.

I'm a retired bus driver living in Magelang. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $580, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the tiles and battens. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for a small crew 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 to be comfortable with heights or willing to help from the ground. 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Thinking of you and your family, Anisa. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Love from Likoni
Sending strength, Anisa. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Love from Jakarta!
This could happen to any of us. Thinking of Magelang.
