Help Danish patch the roof before the monsoon
The roof at Danish's home is failing; materials are donated and we need hands.

I'm a night-shift nurse living in Quetta. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $780, 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 three or four volunteers who can help over a 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor in Málaga donated after I showed her your page. Greetings from Málaga
