Is there a roofer who can donate a few hours in Jimma?
Sosina has a septic backup, and can't afford a licensed roofer to fix it; a few hours of professional help would make the home safe.
🇪🇹 Jimma, Oromia, Ethiopia749 views
In January an inspector told me that my home has a septic backup. It's a safety risk for me and my three children. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $370 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 $25.
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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Sending strength, Sosina. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. All the best.
sending good thoughts. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't give up. God bless.
Sending good thoughts. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care.
