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

I'm a home-care aide living in Caloocan. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $810, 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 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'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
