Roofing help wanted: Putri's home in Makassar
Could you spare a weekend to help repair a leaking roof in Makassar?
🇮🇩 Makassar, South Sulawesi, Indonesia304 views
I'm a home-care aide living in Makassar. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $670, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the corrugated iron sheets and timber. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for anyone handy who can help over a 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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

keep going. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 16 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
