Help Mustafa patch the roof before the rainy season
Mustafa, a night-shift nurse, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 2-weekend roof repair in Cairo.
🇪🇬 Cairo, Cairo, Egypt351 views
I'm a night-shift nurse living in Cairo. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $510, 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 a small crew who can help over one long weekend.
Experience helps, but it isn't essential - I'll have a licensed roofer supervising for safety. All you need is sturdy shoes, gloves and a willingness to work. 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 never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Praying for you, Mustafa. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. We're a small family in Caxias do Sul but we're thinking of you. Take care.
wishing you the best. Looking forward to the next update. Greetings from Gwangju.
Hang in there, Mustafa. Shared this with my family. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.
Sending strength, Mustafa. Hope this works out for you.
