I'm a single mother of three living in Caloocan. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $620, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the shingles and underlay. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for 4-6 people who can help over two Saturdays.
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.
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Love from Enugu
