Help Trinh patch the roof before the monsoon
Trinh, a single mother of three, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 2-weekend roof repair in Hải Phòng.
🇻🇳 Hải Phòng, Vietnam312 views
I'm a single mother of three living in Hải Phòng. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $440, 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 three or four volunteers 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 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'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

best of luck. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Don't give up.
Thinking of you. Hope you get there. Please keep us posted. God bless!
So sorry you're going through this. Shared this with my family. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Blessings.
Wishing you peace, Trinh. Hope you get there
Sending strength, Trinh. Hope you get there. Love from León!
Best of luck, Trinh. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. God bless.
Thinking of you. Hope you get there. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Take care
Wishing you peace, Trinh. Hope this works out for you. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
Take care. Hope you get there. I hope December is when things finally get easier.
Stay strong. Hope this works out for you. Thinking of Hải Phòng
Stay strong. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Thinking of Hải Phòng
Best of luck, Trinh. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My neighbor in Katowice donated after I showed her your page. Blessings.
