Two weekends of roof repair for Chalerm, a home-care aide in Bangkok

Could you spare three weekday mornings to help repair a leaking roof in Bangkok?

I'm a home-care aide living in Bangkok. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the kids' bedroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $490, which isn't something I can pay. The good news: a local hardware store has donated the tiles and battens. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for three or four volunteers 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. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

    Hope it all works out, Chalerm. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. All the best.
