Roofing help wanted: Tareq's home in Comilla
The roof at Tareq's home is failing; materials are donated and we need hands.
🇧🇩 Comilla, Chattogram, Bangladesh1,013 views
I'm a retired bus driver living in Comilla. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the kids' bedroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $570, 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 4-6 people 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 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.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Best of luck, Tareq. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Comilla.
Sending good thoughts, Tareq. Looking forward to the next update. I hope October is when things finally get easier. God bless
you're not alone, Tareq. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Love from Brandon.
Rooting for you. Looking forward to the next update. We're a small family in Hồ Chí Minh City but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Comilla.
best of luck, Tareq. Hope you get there. Greetings from Boulogne-Billancourt.
