Help Waseem patch the roof before the next storm
Waseem, a widowed grandmother, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 2-weekend roof repair in Faisalabad.

I'm a widowed grandmother living in Faisalabad. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $270, 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 two Saturdays.
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'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Good luck, Waseem. Hope this works out for you. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Arusha.
Thanks for sharing this. This could happen to any of us. It's not much but it's yours. Greetings from Curitiba
Sending strength, Waseem. Shared it with a few friends. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best.
Wishing you peace, Waseem. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care
