Two weekends of roof repair for Farhan, a retired bus driver in Lahore
The roof at Farhan's home is failing; materials are donated and we need hands.
🇵🇰 Punjab, Pakistan611 views
I'm a retired bus driver living in Lahore. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $330, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the roofing sheets and nails. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for a small crew who can help over two Saturdays.
Experience helps, but it isn't essential - I'll have a licensed roofer supervising for safety. All you need is to be comfortable with heights or willing to help from the ground. 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 hope life is good to you.

Wishing you peace, Farhan. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I hope May is when things finally get easier. Thinking of Lahore.
You're not alone, Farhan. Looking forward to the next update. Don't give up. Blessings
Hope you get there. Greetings from Addis Ababa
