Help Esther patch the roof before the monsoon
Esther, a disabled veteran, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 1-weekend roof repair in Mombasa.

I'm a disabled veteran living in Mombasa. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $630, 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 two Saturdays.
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.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

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. Take care
