Roofing help wanted: Mona's home in Cairo
The roof at Mona's home is failing; materials are donated and we need hands.
🇪🇬 Cairo, Cairo, Egypt619 views
I'm a disabled veteran living in Cairo. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $500, 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 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.
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
