Help Bolaji patch the roof before the monsoon
Bolaji, a night-shift nurse, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 1-weekend roof repair in Bonny.

I'm a night-shift nurse living in Bonny. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $670, 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 a small crew who can help over two Saturdays.
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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Keep going. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My neighbor in Gazipur donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of Bonny.
Best of luck. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Thinking of Bonny.
hang in there. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Love from Da Nang.
