I'm a home-care aide living in Makati. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $520, 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 three or four volunteers who can help over one long weekend.
Experience helps, but it isn't essential - I'll have a licensed roofer supervising for safety. All you need is to be comfortable with heights or willing to help from the ground. 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.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
- effort
- one long weekend
- format

- Would recommend to anyone
I can't speak highly enough about this helper. They were available when I needed them, supportive when I felt lost, and practical in their solutions.
- Very responsive and caring
This helper is honest and transparent about what they can do. They didn't overpromise, but they did deliver excellent results. I would definitely trust them again.

best of luck, Angelo. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
shared it with a few friends. My neighbor in Los Angeles donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of Makati.
Hope things get better soon, Angelo. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Thinking of Makati
Sending love, Angelo. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Put this on a community board in Celaya this morning. Greetings from Celaya.
