Two weekends of roof repair for Ana, a school janitor in Bogotá
Ana, a school janitor, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 1-weekend roof repair in Bogotá.
🇨🇴 Bogotá, Bogotá D.C., Colombia965 views
I'm a school janitor living in Bogotá. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $660, 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 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 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.
Thank you so much.

I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Greetings from Saint Petersburg
best of luck. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Blessings
Thinking of you. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I'm in public service myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you
good luck, Ana. Hope you get there. After 12 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
