Roofing help wanted: Akello's home in Dodoma
Could you spare three weekday mornings to help repair a leaking roof in Dodoma?
🇹🇿 Dodoma, Dodoma, Tanzania861 views
I'm a home-care aide living in Dodoma. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $660, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the corrugated iron sheets and timber. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for 4-6 people who can help over three weekday mornings.
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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Best of luck, Akello. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. It's not much but it's yours. Take care
