Roofing help wanted: Kipchoge's home in Dodoma
The roof at Kipchoge's home is failing; materials are donated and we need hands.
🇹🇿 Dodoma, Tanzania956 views
I'm a single mother of three living in Dodoma. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $610, 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 anyone handy 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 work boots and a hat. 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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Good luck, Kipchoge. It takes guts to ask. Well done. After 14 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Kasarani.
