Help Evans patch the roof before winter
Could you spare two Saturdays to help repair a leaking roof in Nairobi?
🇰🇪 Nairobi, Nairobi, Kenya1,243 views
I'm a disabled veteran living in Nairobi. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $980, 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 three or four volunteers 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.
I hope life is good to you.

Hope it all works out, Evans. Hope you get there. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from Ekurhuleni.
Keep going, Evans. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. God bless.
