Help Zulkifli patch the roof before the monsoon
The roof at Zulkifli's home is failing; materials are donated and we need hands.
🇮🇩 Bekasi, West Java, Indonesia410 views
I'm a disabled veteran living in Bekasi. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $490, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the roofing sheets and nails. 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 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Sending strength. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home
Rooting for you, Zulkifli. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. I went through something like this 9 years ago and strangers helped me out. God bless.
