Is there a roofer who can donate a few hours in Dodoma?
Margaret has faulty wiring that trips the power and smells of burning, and can't afford a licensed roofer to fix it; a few hours of professional help would make the home safe.

In July an inspector told me that my home has faulty wiring that trips the power and smells of burning. It's a safety risk for me and my two small children. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $300 are beyond us.
I'm looking for a licensed roofer who may be able to donate a few hours or do the repair at cost. I can cover the parts, which I estimate at $10.
The job should take about three hours. I'll make sure someone is home and will provide refreshments. I can share the inspector's written report on request.
If you're a roofer and can help, or know a program that assists with this sort of repair, I'd really appreciate it.
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

stay strong, Margaret. Shared this with my family. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend
Stay strong. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We're a small family in Rajshahi but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Dodoma.
a secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
