Roofing help wanted: Michael's home in Obuasi
The roof at Michael's home is failing; materials are donated and we need hands.

I'm a home-care aide living in Obuasi. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $310, 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 a small crew 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.
Thank you for reading my story.
