Roofing help wanted: Rowena's home in Makati
Could you spare a weekend to help repair a leaking roof in Makati?
🇵🇭 Metro Manila, Philippines111 views
I'm a single mother of three living in Makati. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the kids' bedroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $470, 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 three or four volunteers 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 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Put this on a community board in Bakersfield this morning. Greetings from Bakersfield.
