Help Henry patch the roof before the next storm
Henry, a widowed grandmother, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 1-weekend roof repair in Ibadan.
🇳🇬 Ibadan, Oyo, Nigeria1,112 views
I'm a widowed grandmother living in Ibadan. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 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 corrugated iron sheets and timber. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for three or four volunteers who can help over three weekday mornings.
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.
Glad we found this place.
