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

I'm a school janitor living in Lahore. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $430, 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 4-6 people 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

Wishing you peace, Hira. Looking forward to the next update
You're not alone, Hira. Shared this with my family. God bless.
Sending good thoughts, Hira. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out.
keep going. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Sent it to 3 people at work. Love from Casablanca.
Sending strength, Hira. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Take care.
